With the school holidays just around the corner, South Australians can expect quieter roads over the summer period. To coincide with this period, we are trialling summer holiday timetables from Monday 16 December 2024 to Friday 24 January 2025.

The summer holiday timetables are designed to help commuters make the most of the reduced road traffic during the school break. Some timetables for peak services will look different to allow some buses to run a different but more efficient schedule, meaning passengers will likely reach their destination faster.

Impacts to passengers

To city

During this time, commuters can expect some peak hour services to arrive at their final destination earlier than normal to account for less traffic on roads.

From city

Impacted services may depart the city up to five minutes later, or arrive at their suburban destination slightly earlier, to allow for the faster travel time that occurs over the summer period.
