Shuttle buses. (1 Viewer)

[sparkl3z]

is there shuttle buses/buses at all campuses from the stations to the uni? how frequently do they operate? thx.

Not all campuses. I'm pretty sure that there are only shuttle buses to penrith.

Parra you will rely on state transit buses. Bankstown you have to catch a bus between bankstown station and the uni but the other unis you can walk between the station and the campuses.

Which campus were you looking at exactly?

yeh is there any at hawkesbury? actually i could just walk coz its good exercise....ive seen pple take bikes...maybe i should get a bike?

Theres a westbus service in the morning at about quarter past 8 or so, and one in the afternoon just after 5. It will cost a $1.20 one way. I prefer to walk, especially in winter cause it warms me up.

 

[Dumdida]

oh ok, damn its not free! i think ill just walk too... hey cape i have a class that finishes on tuesday at five, it says on city rail that there is a train at 5.09 do you think i'd make it to the 5.09 train by walking, or would that bus reach it?

 

[expensive_taste]

wow... do buses usually cost that much??
hey does ne1 know.. do u need a sticker just to park at uni? would i really need 1 if i would only drive like once a week???

I finished like that time last year ... and generally that train does not turn up at 5.09. It generally turns up at east richmond at about 5:20 and then goes to richmond. You will get used to all the trains being late.

As for the sticker, since your driving only one day and you know have to pay, i assume they have machines that you day and you receive a ticket.

yeah are going to be shuttle buses at campbelltown station to uni as well

 

[rain_28]

same quetion as luckyduck

 

[luckyduck]

hahaha ops i meant yesh there is going to be shuttle bus at campbelltown station as well

 

[a little lost]

and if u go to campbelltown campus u are strongly advised to catch that shuttle bus to campbelltown station. Trains are often cancelled at campbelltown and turned back. so they don't actually end up at marcarthur station. And there have been one too many times when they just put on a shuttle bus between marcurtha station and campbelltown because the trains are soo late they don't have time to go to marcurthar...

So there are definetley going to be shuttle buses between Campbelltown station and uni?. How can we find out the schedule and where do they leave from?

[Dumdida]

u need to go to clyde to go to the parramatta campus - there isnt any lines that go there from parra station, from clyde u need to go 2 rydalmere station and from there it's like a 10 minute walk. go to cityrail website www.cityrail.info/timetable/index.jsp for times.

:'( sifffffffff

i dont want to catch a train, and then waaaaaaaaaaaaaalk *whinge*

 

[klh]

for c'town, there are 2 buses you can use to get to mac station form c'town station.
the uws shuttle, which is on the other side of the platoform when you stop off at c'town station and then the cityrail buses that go to mac station. to use the cityrail one, all you need is a valid ticket that goes to mac staion and you can go on.
i would rather the city rail becasue its bigger and when you stop at the station, its there waiting for you. the uws chuttle is a smaller bus, liek them toyota shuttle buses [not the Hiace]
