Re: Admet 2024 timetable changes what can we expect
Pity the 3/4 removed W91 services in the middle of the weekday haven't been reinstated, so much for being a Go-Zone.

Bustech seem to be pumping these new buses out quite quick, are they all locally built here or some just fitted out here.

Re: [Mar/Apr 2019] SA Transport observations
Noticed today some of the 3000/3100's spotted on the Belair line now have a yellow paint work edging around the passenger doors instead of blue ones, I assume yellow is a very recent modification.

Re: [Jan/Feb 2019] SA Transport observations
MFS paging shows that there was a bus fire on Currie St this afternoon, doesn't mention which one though. 99% certain it was an NL202 (sorry don't remember the fleet number) at least 2 or 3 fire extinguishers were used before the MFS arrived. Quite interesting to watch while waiting for a bus in Gr...

Re: BUS ROUTES TO BE SCRAPPED IN DRIVE FOR SAVINGS
Found a quirk in the link that worked. TAXPAYERS are paying at least $100 a passenger on about 10 South Australian bus services as the State Government prepares to cut its least patronised routes. Almost 100 services cost more than $50 a passenger to operate, with the Government only recouping 20-25...

Re: Southlink BCI's at Gawler. 27/12/17
Nice photos 'The Inspector'.
I wondered what buses AdMetro was referring to in their recent changes announcements (Introduction of 2 new low floor vehicles to the Gawler Dial-A-Ride service).
