The town of Basingstoke in Hampshire, England, has a large bus network, providing the main public transport service there. Most services are currently run by Stagecoach in Hampshire. The network has a long history, and some routes are particularly long-standing.
This is a list of some bus routes that have served Basingstoke in past years.
