Inter-Zone route 476 is operated between Zone 4 and 7, as part of the revamped Leafy Island transit network. As part of expanding service across the Islands to/from Zone 7, this route will connect Eastmallow and Central to the southern coast of Leafy Island and Rainbow, without the need for transfers. Service began on July 25, 2020. In addition, the route also bypasses Senpai, allowing for a shorter journey for passengers travelling between the two points, although it bypasses Northern Interchange in Zone 4.
The route is operated by City Scape Bus and Horizon Group, which have the contract for most routes serving Zone 7.

Usage Status[]
While route 476 helps to alleviate crowding on route 475, it does share similar routing with route 475A towards Rainbow but provides a faster trip for westbound passengers due to route 475A only running eastbound. Therefore, ridership is decent and is generally heavier on westbound trips, with passengers having to transfer upon arrival at Eastmallow for service to Norton and Sunshine University.
Unlike route 475, route 476 is mainly designed for commuters travelling between Rainbow and Zone 4, providing them a faster trip to and from work.
