Transport Canberra has announced a substantial expansion of bus services throughout the Australian Capital Territory, responding proactively to widespread traffic disruptions caused by extensive roadworks and construction activities.
Enhanced Service Frequencies and Routes
The expansion includes increased frequencies on key routes during peak hours, with additional services added to accommodate higher passenger demand. New temporary routes have also been introduced to bypass heavily affected areas, ensuring smoother travel for commuters.
Addressing Commuter Concerns
Officials emphasised that these measures aim to alleviate congestion and reduce delays, particularly in suburbs experiencing significant construction. Real-time updates and improved signage are being implemented to keep passengers informed of changes.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy to enhance public transport reliability amid ongoing infrastructure projects. Residents are encouraged to plan their journeys using updated timetables and digital tools provided by Transport Canberra.
