Greater Hobart Bus Network Review
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 Tassielink, Metro and Kinetic and the Metro school bus network. No other school bus services are included.
Changes coming on 3 May 2026
As the first step of the review, bus timetables in Greater Hobart will change on 3 May 2026 to better reflect actual travel conditions, and new Sunday services to and from Brighton will commence.
The current Greater Hobart bus network is based on 2015 travel conditions. Timetables have not kept pace with changes in road network conditions, travel patterns, journey times, and traffic, contributing to ongoing late running.
From 3 May 2026, timetables will more closely align with actual bus movements. Most public services will be adjusted by just a few minutes but have added extra to some Metro school services so students can get to school on time.
You can plan future journeys using journey planning apps from 1 April 2026.
Timetables will be available to preview online from 17 April 2025 at transport.tas.gov.au/bus-network review.
• Please check times on the new timetables https://www.transport.tas.gov.au/public_transport/bus_timetables/hobart-timetables
• Arrive at your bus stop at least 5 minutes early
• Public transport is free until Tuesday 30 June 2026, so it’s a great opportunity to give it a try if you’re not a regular user.
