As we start a new school year, we would like to remind you, parents and students about our services and how to best prepare for bus travel this school year.
Details of all school and regular bus services are now available for parents and students to begin planning their journeys. We ask that parents and students familiarise themselves with the most suitable route, times and stop locations for their children before the school term commences.
School bus services are available to school students only however, parents with young children may apply to travel on these services for a few weeks to help their child get used to bus travel. Please use the links below for further information on our bus services:
We are urging parents and students to check MyWay cards and top up if required. MyWay cards can be topped up automatically using the handy autoload service, online, over the phone via the Transport Canberra information line (13 17 10), or in person with a MyWay recharge agent. Passengers who top up using Autoload attract a further 5% discount on all fares.
New bus fares came into effect on 20 January 2018. Single trip concessions cash fares cost $2.40 and MyWay fares are now $1.57. Parents and students can find more information at transport.act.gov.au or by calling 13 17 10.
Transport Canberra would appreciate your assistance in circulating this information to students and parents using your existing communications channels, such as school emails, newsletters or notices.
We wish you the best of luck with the 2018 school year.
Regards,
Transport Canberra – Marketing and Communications
