[ACTION Buses] Canberra Station to Parliament House

Postby boxythingy » Sat Jun 23, 2012 12:18 am

I looked at Google Maps Transit to see what buses take me to Parliament House from the Station and this was the result I got:
http://goo.gl/maps/y9yi

Q1) Is this the closest bus stop to Parliament House (from the station and the most direct bus)?

Q2) I'm also assuming a 'Daily' ticket allows unlimited travel on buses in one day?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT, I've also found http://www.deanesbuslines.com.au/queanb ... 0.html#Map However the timetable does not list all the stops which makes it uncertain.

[ACTION Buses] Canberra Station to Parliament House

Q1) That is the closest bus stop that the bus from the Railway Station service will get you. However, if you still jump off the 200 on National Circuit & walk across the road, a route 2/3 will take you up to Parliament House. These 2 services are meant to provide a 15 minute frequency. The same as the Route 200 from the Railway Station.

Q2) Correct. But you can't use your ACTION Daily Ticket on the Deanes bus & Deanes tickets can't be used on ACTION Buses.

Thank you Bus 400 for your information, I knew that the ACTION Daily ticket couldn't be used on the Deanes due to 1) different company and different ticketing system (ACT and NSW).
