There are also weekly travel passes for buses and ferries only (without trains).
Although these are slightly cheaper, the buses tend to be rather slow and
tedious for long journeys.
The blue travel pass corresponds to the red area
mentioned above in the Trains section while the orange travel pass corresponds
to the green area (but, of course without the train services).
The third
pass is called the Pittwater Pass and includes all Sydney Buses services
and all ferry services. In addition to the ordinary bus services, some special
buses are operated by Sydney Buses, catering mainly to the requirements of
visitors to the city.
These services are the airport buses (green and yellow),
which are routes 300 and 350,
the Sydney Explorer bus (red) and the Bondi Explorer bus (blue). These buses
are conspicuously different because of their colouring, and all require special
tickets. They cannot be used with ordinary bus tickets or with travel passes.
If you need assistance with buses, the telephone number to call is 131 500. |
