Bus Stop Management Plan

The Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) is seeking to improve the travel times of Adelaide Metro services for commuters by investigating the location of bus stops along key service corridors.

The Bus Stop Management Plan project includes:

  • investigating the potential location of stops and shelters that may better serve Adelaide Metro patrons
  • identifying how different bus stop configurations may improve travel times whilst also maintaining good levels of accessibility.

Bus stops and shelters will be relocated, removed or indented as part of the plan. Changes are based on DIT patronage, operational and road safety data.

This project is part of Keeping Metro Traffic Moving, a South Australian Government initiative to improve the efficiency, reliability and safety of the transport network, which includes both roads and public transport and extends across Greater Adelaide.

Current Projects

After close consideration of patronage, operational and road safety data, as well as feedback received from the community, the following changes will be implemented from 6 April 2020, along these key routes:
