New route 10

edit

Details of the new route 10 will need to be incorporated into this article. WWGB (talk) 01:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

List of Bus Routes

edit

I came on to update some of the veolia and punchbowl bus routes and noticed that the list of (x00) hidebars are not separate templates but are all together in one section. Would it be possible for someone to separate them all into separate templates of x00 bus routes and then link them all back to the summary section.

Table format

edit

This page would be better if presented in a table format. Take a look at other bus route pages such as List of bus routes in London. koalajiv (talk) 12:27, 8 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Bus routes in Sydney

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Bus routes in Sydney's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Transdev":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 11:54, 1 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Restructure

edit

I have significantly restructured the article to reflect the structure of the network (i.e., tiers and contract regions) rather than the comparatively arbitrary route number series. As the 'rapid route' tier is the most strategically significant, these routes are called out and expanded upon. Other routes can be described in more general terms. Importantly, I have not attempted to list every route, as this will require more frequent updates than editors are able to provide. (Readers wanting to know the number of each route at any given time would be better served visiting the Transport for NSW website.) Mqst north (talk) 12:28, 1 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Also, I freely acknowledge that much more work is required to improve the readability. At this stage it mostly consists of the material merged in or reordered from other pages. Mqst north (talk) 12:29, 1 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
I have reinstated the Metrobus (Sydney), NightRide and Sydney Metropolitan Bus System Contracts articles. These are relatively well cited and should remain separate from this article which at the moment is a bit of a dogs breakfast, albeit with some recent improvements, and in many parts uncited. If anything this article is probably a candidate for merging with Buses in Sydney. Stapb (talk) 01:51, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

It appears to have been further restructured in 2017 with all emphasis on the four State Transit operated regions and virtually no information on the privately operated regions. As a result this article is now very slanted.Fleet Lists (talk) 05:35, 6 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

This page should now be deleted after being amalgamated into other pages of the same type.Fleet Lists (talk) 08:39, 21 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
