The Department of State Growth is reviewing the current Greater Hobart bus network, including urban Hobart and outlying areas such as New Norfolk, Sorell and Southern Beaches, Richmond, Campania and the Huon Valley.
This review includes the public bus network currently operated by Metro, Tassielink and Kinetic and the Metro school bus network. No other school bus services are included.
Ultimately, the review will aim to deliver updated routes and timetables that:
- are reliable, easy to use and convenient
- improve access to jobs and everyday needs like shopping and social activities
- make better use of available funding to benefit the most people.
At the same time we are working to retime services to make them more reliable, and introduce new Sunday services to Brighton.
Consultation has closed
The first round of consultation closed on 20 June 2025. Thank you for your feedback on how the Greater Hobart bus network is working and how it can be improved.
We will now use your feedback to help design a draft new network, and there will be another chance to provide feedback once the draft network is ready. Keep an eye out here for project updates.
