Service adjustments for buses in the Eastern and South Eastern suburbs of Sydney

From Monday 29 April, timetables and routes for some Eastern and South Eastern suburbs buses will be adjusted to improve reliability and capacity to meet customer demand.

Key service adjustments include:

  • Increased capacity on routes experiencing overcrowding and reallocation of services to address routes with on time performance issues.
  • The changes include:
    • Additional trips on routes 309, 333, 350, 362, 375, 392 and 394X
    • Reduced trips on routes 310, 342, 380, 381, 396, 397, 377X, 390X, 396X and 397X
  • Changes to running times to reflect actual journey times, including both faster trips and extra time where it is required. Timetable reliability will improve, which will also reduce cancellations caused by late running.
  • Introducing all year operation on route 362.
  • Routes 392X and 394X will now run as loop services, providing services in both directions to and from the City in weekday morning and afternoon peak periods.
