Customers are advised to check Trip Planner on the day you travel for the latest service information, as information will be updated closer to the start of the works, and roadwork dates and traffic management arrangements may change during the project.

These works form part of Sydney Water's Ryde to Pymble Pipeline Upgrade, which is expected to continue in stages until 2028. As construction schedules are subject to change, Busways is unable to confirm dates for future stages at this time. Customers, schools, elected representatives and other stakeholders will receive advance notice and updated information prior to each stage commencing.
