Abstract

Metrobuses, branded high capacity and high frequency bus services, have gradually been added to the network in the Sydney metropolitan area since 2008 to link key employment and growth centres across Sydney. The routes have generally overlaid the existing bus network as part of the bus reform package, implemented in Sydney from 2005.
