"To ensure the services within the catchment are genuinely improved, we have been analysing our performance data closely and aim to deliver significant on time running improvements over the coming months.

"Given the scale of the region, it is naturally a time-consuming and complex task, so we appreciate the community's patience while we have evaluated the network, and we look forward to enhancing the commuter’s experience when we implement the service improvements."

Residents across The Hills have received a public transport lifeline from NSW Government, following the announcement of increased bus services from residential areas to Sydney Metro stations.

A growing campaign by the North Kellyville Advocacy Group, which was calling for the implementation of on-demand bus services to Kellyville, Rouse Hill and Beaumont Hills after the completion of the new metro network, has been answered by Transport for NSW with thousands of new bus services to be rolled out on July 28.

Yes I would think so

I think there is one crucial difference though: all of the N suffixed routes are actually a little different to their regular route.

333N/400N is all stops instead of limited stops

420N doesn't run via Domestic

The listed 610N, 620N and 607N all seem to have a little route extension or deviation somewhere?
