Parramatta to Macquarie Park via Epping-route M54

Reviewed

Project overview

The NSW Government has funded the Bus Priority Infrastructure Program. The program aims to improve the reliability of bus services on Sydney’s main bus corridors. Transport for NSW has identified some ways to improve the reliability of buses along the Parramatta to Macquarie Park via Epping bus corridor.

Project information

Changes to bus stops have now been completed

Please note local councils are responsible for the provision of shelters, seats, rubbish bins and footpaths.

For information about the changes to bus stops please contact Transport for NSW on 1300 038 500 or via their website.

Background

These changes support Future Transport Strategy 2056, which is the NSW Government plan to deliver the future transport network. In this plan, a key customer outcome is safety and performance, which seeks to ensure that every customer enjoys safe travel across a high performing and efficient network. It also reflects what our customers tell us about bus services, with travel time and on-time running being some of the most important service features.

Key outcomes

Key outcomes with the bus stop changes include:

  • improving safety for bus operations
  • making travel times more reliable for customers
  • contributing to the NSW Government’s target of 95 per cent on-time running of bus services.
