"Necesitan encontrar un autobús" in this case.

"to find " = "encontrar".

Would you not say that hear find means encounter/come across, rather than look for; the result of the search rather than the searching itself? Encontrarse con, or something like that... - afowen, Feb 22, 2011
You would not use buscar around here. - lorenzo9, Feb 22, 2011
Argh, not roond these parts... - afowen, Feb 22, 2011

I believe that You would use encontrarse con when talking about meeting with people rather than finding things - FELIZ77, Feb 22, 2011

As in a bus to buy or hire or rather a public bus that will take you to a specific destination?

Try writing exactly what you want to say in English and using the translation tool above to get the Spanish.

Welcome.
