Bus Service Changes

Bus changes to support the start of Sydney Metro from Chatswood to Sydenham

In August, Transport for NSW is making changes to some bus services to support the launch of Sydney Metro, Chatswood to Sydenham.

The bus changes aim to improve connectivity to Sydney Metro services and support integration into the broader public transport network, primarily in Sydney’s North West and North Shore.

NSW Government say changes will enhance the network and support residential growth and reduce duplication of public transport services. These changes include:

• Increasing service frequency and operating hours of some bus routes to offer improved connections to Sydney Metro.
• Adjusting existing timetables for other bus routes to better reflect demand and improve service performance.
• Adjusting some bus routes to terminate in different locations, to reduce duplication of public transport services.
• Delivering the NSW Government Election Commitment to connect Top Ryde and East Ryde with Metro services at North Ryde Station.
• Withdrawing a small number of routes where there is duplication with new Sydney Metro services and availability of alternative bus or train services.

To understand what the changes mean for you and for more detailed information, please visit www.transport.nsw.gov.au/buschanges

Transport for NSW will be launching Street Teams at key locations across the North West to help passengers before and after the changes take place.

The Transport for NSW Trip Planner will be updated with the new information before the changes take effect. The best way to plan ahead is to visithttps://transportnsw.info/trip before travelling.

Council is collating feedback related to any of these changes as they are being rolled out. Find out more on our Have Your Say page.
