Hard to turn back from the 50 Cent fare? Admittedly I am based in Adelaide so observing what goes on interstate with public transport is an enjoyable past time as someone who is both a public transport advocate and enthusiast. When my late grandmother was alive in 2002, we didn’t know where we wante...

And Adelaide soon followed when the State Transport Authority was launched in 1974 with integrated ticketing and services. Which till this day thankfully still exists.

Maybe it’s just me but some timetables have added inset maps (within route maps) in them which were not there previously on some timetables in the past.

For those interested https://www.adelaidemetro.com.au/about-us/news/news-items/2024/august-service-updates It highlights that some timetables have had artwork changes but no such timings. But the artwork on some shows the new after midnight logo but others well I can’t see any real changes to artwor...

Adelaide Metro August 2024 timetable changes observation The timetable changes for August 2023 have heralded improved services in the Adelaide Hills (mainly Mount Barker), the North-South, Outer South and East-West Contract areas but these have been in aid of not only the Flinders Medical Centre hav...

Apart from those routes above has anyone else noticed any other changes specifically the past ones that were initially showing temporary timetable on the front cover.

Adelaide now has something about it tonight but nothing on the Admet website

Just a quick look at 507 and 176/178/578/N178 timetable they are dated 25th August 2024 as well. There are probably others lying around on the website. Wonder what the changes are apart from not having Temporary on the front cover of them.

Noting after midnight services timetables for outer south and east west and north south corridors have the new After midnight logo on it which looks not bad in my opinion simple but effective.

I look at those changes, particularly for the Outer South contract area; and wonder how they compare to the 2020 "New Network" proposals for the Outer South. Certainly I can see some elements; like the commonality of all South Rd services running via Anzac Highway (and rerouting another s...

No announcement on Admet website about these important changes

See https://www.adelaidemetro.com.au/about-us/news/news-items/2024/flinders-medical-centre-interchange-changes With new go zone from Marion Centre and majors road via ocean boulevard and majors road. Plus Roam Zone scrapped in the Hallett Cove, Sheidow and Trott Park areas due to no one using it. Al...

So lumpy that one cannot easily work out frequencies but I am wondering me being a devils advocate here will the Port Dock line be single railcar running which can be done because we still have 3000s available. The grange is normally a 2 car set as is from memory OH services and Belair is 2 car set....

Port Dock and associated timetables are now online for the August changes:

The proper spacing of different routes along a shared corridor or different routes which link common destinations of interest, despite maybe going different ways, is what sets apart a great scheduler/timetabler from a run of the mill scheduler/timetabler. Sadly I see examples all over Australia and...

We know there are numerous Missed Public Transport Opportunities but the biggest one would probably the MATS Plan when it suggested a underground railway for Adelaide and it never happened- mind you some of the highway developments have happened in a very roundabout way look at the Northern Expressw...

Many public transport observers and advocates have noticed in the past three decades the philosophy to improve services you have to reduce an existing one to pay for a new and or improved services. Some planners have spoken about this at times when Inner Suburban services needed to be cut to improve...

Can anyone advise if any stations (apart from Perth) have been staffed and what are their hours or are they still staffed. Adelaide got rid of staffed stations from 1987 onward to cut costs and for them it would have been good to have kept a couple for fare evasion and safety reasons. For example su...

Now there is no connecting services shown in timetables which seems to have stopped happening in 2002 in Adelaide so a passenger has to consult two timetables one for the bus and one for the train!

This year marks the 30 Years since the first Premium Station opened in Mt Waverley (Glen Waverley Line) all though it was announced by the PTC in 1991 under the guise of "Safe Stations". Of the 221 (current as of February 2024) stations on Melbourne's railway network, there are 82 premium ...

I haven’t heard anything but the silence is deafening and so are the crickets.

Please accept my apologies for mistakenly saying that the Grange Service had been downgraded but can I ask anyone what are your thoughts about the frequency of services at the various stations and how will they change. Hopefully they are clock face timetable or memory timetables.

On todays Admet website https://www.adelaidemetro.com.au/about-us/news/news-items/2024/port-dock-railway-line Grange users will have at least a close by bus service but is it a precursor for an entire line closure one would hope not. This means between Woodville and Adelaide a quiet frequency will e...

Public Transport is an interesting topic in any conversation mostly its about how its not accessible for most people to get to and from work or other activities. However, for public transport advocates it’s a case of accessibility as well as frequency and where the service goes. However, things get ...

I have seen on the Queensland Section someone has listed Brisbane Transport Routes by Depot

Would someone like to have a go to compile a list of which depot services each route?

Thanks for everyone's input.
