Transport Canberra School Update – Term 3, 2020

From Saturday 18 July 2020, Transport Canberra will be updating timetables for bus services.

These changes will help make public transport in Canberra easier to use by providing more services and increased frequency, to ensure that people have greater opportunity to spread out their travel across the day as we recover from COVID-19.

Transport Canberra has worked closely with the school community and we are providing increased frequency and additional services for school students across Canberra.

As a new timetable is being introduced, there will be minor changes for all students travelling to and from school on public transport across Canberra from the first day of Term 3, 2020 (Monday 20 July 2020). In most cases, this will mean that students will catch the same service from the same stop, but the times that services arrive and leave may change.

St Edmund's College School Pack

In addition, Transport Canberra has made the following changes:

  • From Term 3, there will be a number of improvements to bus services for students at St Edmund’s College.
  • These changes will make it easier to catch a bus to and from the school from parts of the Inner South, the Woden Valley and Tuggeranong.
  • There will be no changes to services in Term 2, 2020.

School special from Yarralumla and Deakin

  • From Term 3, school route 2011 will change to serve stops in Yarralumla and Deakin. This will provide a direct service for students who live in these suburbs to and from St Edmund’s College and St Clare’s College each morning and afternoon.

School special from Bonython

  • From Term 3, school route 2002 will be extended to start and end in Bonython. This will provide a direct service for students who live in Bonython to and from St Edmund’s College and St Clare’s College each morning and afternoon.

All schools, parents and students can find out more about the specific changes by:
