Witnesses watched on in horror as the fire engulfed the bus.
Onlookers reported hearing loud popping noises as the tyres on the bus exploded.
Three passengers and the driver were reportedly on the bus at the time but no injuries were reported.
‘Through the quick action of the bus driver, all of the passengers and the driver themselves were evacuated off the bus so firefighters could concentrate on extinguishing the fire,’ a Fire and Rescue NSW spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia.
The front of the bus was reduced to a metal shell by the time firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze.
Motorists are advised to avoid the area until the scene is cleared.
