Throughout the year, Alsa Calpita coach company drives through the area,connecting Oleiros with A Coruña city centre and the coach station.

In addition there is also a municipal bus service that crosses Oleiros from North to South, from Lorbé to O Burgo (in the nearby Culleredo Council). Buses leave on the odd hours from Lorbé (from 7 am to 9 pm) and on the even hours from O Burgo (from 8 am to 8 pm).
