Colours represented appear on the network map, but not the vehicles themselves.

Community services
From 5 September 2011, Southern Vectis agreed to run commercially unviable services following the axing of Wightbus in coordination with the Isle of Wight Council and the town and parish councils were the routes run. The scheme is known as the Community Bus Partnership, with all services driven by volunteers.

Commuter services
From the 18 April 2010 timetable, two commuter services were started on a trial period, to overcome some of the issues of route 10 and route 11 being withdrawn in December 2009. They ran into Newport in the morning, and back out in the afternoon peak, using school coaches between duties. They used to run non stop between their final via point and Newport but were withdrawn in September 2012.

Other services
Southern Vectis operate other bus services, such as school bus routes. Southern Vectis run four open top tours. The Island Coaster and open top tours are only operated during the summer. A special 'open top Christmas lights tour' is also run during the Christmas period.
