On Monday 29 September the new Adelaide Street tunnel opened, better connecting Cultural Centre and King George Square stations by linking the Inner Northern and South East busways.

The new tunnel removes the need for all services to travel through Queen Street bus station reducing congestion and delays through the city. 

While there are no bus stop or timetable changes as part of this opening, you may notice your bus taking a new route via North Quay and the Adelaide Street tunnel.

Routes travelling through the new tunnel

  • Routes 330, 450, 453, 454 and 460 will continue to service Queen Street bus station and will now travel via Adelaide Street tunnel.
  • Routes M1, M2, 222, 333, 444 and 61 will continue to service King George Square station via the Adelaide Street tunnel rather than via Queen Street bus station.
