There are a few theories as to what might happen with the available paths that will become available on the City Circle, none have been officially confirmed. City Circle will have no new overall paths, a realignment is set to provide services to Liverpool via Regents Park and an uplift in services ...

He said it wasn't because of trackwork; it was because of testing for the forthcoming service to Sydenham. It's deplorable that the whole line had to be shut down because of testing for a new section. I presume they have to trial full service between Tallawong and Sydenham. Of course, with the test...

Not really, change of government has meant a change in perspective and stakeholders have made particular requests which have led to the latest changes.

What are the chances Stage 2 won’t go to the same consortium?

Test what? Tracks are layed by professionals, trams fully manufactured IE imported not built here because we're back to selling raw materials out of thy ground like the industrialised nation we will never be again. Just throw the switches come on!! Remember when the Millennium trains came in and th...

M91 is actually one of the planned future rapid bus routes so do not expect that at all. Transit Systems have also integrated it much better into their R3 operations than the cluster that was U-Go in R10.

Burwood have a mix of express, limited stops and all stops services, plenty of trains. Why add already crowded western line services in the peak hour which were removed from such mid-tier locations like Burwood, Rockdale and Granville in the first place. Strathfield is one minute away for any Interc...

if only they they could show this sort of info at major railway stations, rather than only where the next train stops. Most regular travellers know the destination / destinations of trains that serve the station they want to go to. If every station were listed, monster display boards A number of tr...

Bondi Junction cycleway works from the 10th. Museum Stand A permanently closes. Buses 311 and 440 will be using that stop at Wentworth Ave.

There are timetable changes to Region 6 services earmarked for 10/12/2023: https://transportnsw.info/news/2023/timetable-changes-for-inner-west-bus-routes Basically service improvements all around, with some of the following routes probably going to get the Frequent branding: 389 433 (with some ser...

I notice they are taking on weekend rail bus work so they can’t be as hamstrung by shortages as they were earlier.

Difficult to mount such a defence when Transdev never had these ongoing reliability issues.

I think so as well, as they don’t have a direct contract with TfNSW.

It should be made compulsory throughout Sydney at any stop that the driver can pull in completely parallel to the gutter.

Where are they not allowed to do that?

There needs to be a balance, there needs to be value from expenditure otherwise it becomes a taxpayer-crunching job which reduces the money available for other areas of government. Money is a scarce resource.

The government have practically bent over backwards to make U-Go work.

The variety of their services is also impressive - from the density of inner Sydney out to the relative scarcity of services out Cobbitty way.

If the quotes are direct, appears at least two of the paragraphs came from the same source.

It used to be by contract region, and I would be assuming it is still this way.

The trip data indeed shows every 30 minutes 0925-1425 from Tallawong and 1007-1507 from Chatswood from Tuesday to Friday.

That sort of thing is always a juggling act. More service for some passengers is a slower trip for others. And the whole purpose of doing what was done in 2013 was so that shorter trip customers don't take up room on services which travel all the way out to Waterfall/Cronulla, making those customer...

That is right, they are only temporarily with TSA.

There is an outage affecting buses and NSW Trains at this time. Should come back eventually.

I mean the half dozen routes from region 10 it is now running instead of U-Go. It is only four routes as far as I know plus a number of unknown school routes. On top of that is 920. That is why they are splitting M92. Obviously U-Go couldn’t handle the whole route with Parra being so far away from ...
