Buses

Brisbane is growing and so is our bus network. We want to create the best possible network for you, and now we need your help to get it right. You're now invited to join the conversation and share your feedback before midnight on Wednesday 14 December 2022.

The free City Loop, Spring Hill Loop and South Brisbane Loop bus services provide high frequency public transport access within the Brisbane Central Business District (CBD). Services also run between the CBD and Spring Hill areas and through South Brisbane and West End. 

The CityGlider buses provide fast transport from West End to Teneriffe and from Ashgrove to Stones Corner, with regular services during peak and off-peak times.

Council’s bus depots ensure efficient operation of its bus fleet and include on-site maintenance, cleaning and refuelling, scheduling and rostering and driver amenities.

Council has proudly operated the city’s buses for more than 90 years. Starting with just 11 buses to our current fleet of more than 1200 buses, we are proud of our bus history.

A network of 'no timetable needed' high frequency buses known as BUZ services run daily between 6am and 11.30pm. 

Council's low-floor buses allow easy access for all passengers. Find out about low-floor bus features, as well as the Bus Stop Accessibility Improvement Program and the visually impaired passenger telephone service.

Council is committed to the safety of all passengers while travelling on the bus network. To ensure a safe and comfortable journey, follow some simple safety tips. This section includes advice on bus evacuation in an emergency.
