I was on a G10 service last night around 5:20pm to Blair Athol. It was 1999 and had a Newton run biscuit displayed. Is this bus just borrowed or have Newton taken some "newer" Scanias?

Probably a replacement for a broken down bus-Newton haven't got many spares in peak hours.

For sale, or for lease? It may just be the owners of the land changing, rather than the tenant

[jibb]

It had a "For Sale" sign up.

Unfortunate accident involving a motor scooter rider who hit a bus near the intersection of Diagonal and Sturt Roads Oaklands Park late this afternoon.
Rider admitted to Flinders Medical Centre with serious injuries. Both roads currently closed whilst Major Crash investigates.

Announced tonight that both the City Connector and After Midnight services have been suspended until further notice.

The circuit breaker is ending 11.59pm on Saturday so I assume those services will come back then as it's back to Monday level restrictions.

[jibb]

After Midnight services commence tomorrow night/Sunday morning.
City Connector services resume on Monday.
Adelaide Metro info Centre will open from Sunday morning..

Scania Bustech 1086 has entered service from Morphettville Depot this morning.

[jibb]

1085 has also entered service.

[Route 506]

Had a ride on 259 bus this afternoon. I hadn’t seen this bus for ages and even the front two seats weren’t roped off yet so I’m guessing it’s not long been back on the road

[jibb]

Today was its first day back on the road,after over 12 months off the road.
This leaves 247 as the only NL at St Agnes out of service.

[jibb]

Sealink buses are now using Mile End and Morphettville Depot.

The delays along North Terrace are getting worse and worse, especially with construction at 203 North Terrace (near Gawler Place). Is it time to re-route buses along Grenfell Street, at least for a few months? Maybe they can also take the 98 buses along Frome Street instead of Kintore Avenue.
