Summary of combined services – for more detail please see below.
School Bus 72 & 15
School Bus 17 & 77
School Bus 11 & 58
School Bus 42 & 43
Due to unforeseen circumstances affecting our operational capacity, the following services are affected this afternoon.
School Bus 72 & 15 will be combined.
School Bus 72 PM will operate as normal from the bus stop opposite Patrick’s Road State School, continuing on to Tramway Street.
From Tramway Street, the service will display School Bus 15. All students who normally board School Bus 72 or School Bus 15 are to board this service. It will then operate as a combined School Bus 72/15, setting down students as required through Camp Mountain, Samford, Wights Mountain, and Highvale.
Please note that there are typically very few students using these services on Thursdays due to Ferny Grove State High School’s early bell time. However due to the combined nature of this service, students may arrive at their destinations slightly later than usual.
Parents are encouraged to use the TransportMe app to track both School Bus 15 and School Bus 72.
School Bus 17 & 77 will be combined.
School Bus 17 PM will operate as normal from The Gap State High School and The Gap State School through to Tramway Street.
At Tramway Street, all students who would normally travel onward on School Bus 17 are to transfer onto School Bus 77.
School Bus 77 will then travel as per normal service through to Woods Road.
From Woods Road, School Bus 77 will continue onto Andrew Road as per normal and thereafter continue through to Dayboro as per School Bus 17’s route.
Parents are encouraged to use the TransportMe app to track both School Bus 17 and School Bus 77.
School Bus 11 & 58 will be combined.
Please be advised that due to operational constraints, this afternoon we will be running a single bus that covers both the School Bus 58 and School Bus 11 services.
This will mean a late running of the service from Patricks Road State School through to Bunya this afternoon.
The service will begin as School Bus 58 and pick up students at the regular times at Mitchelton State High School, St Williams, Grovely State School, and Ferny Hills State School.
After that, the bus will change the number displayed to School Bus 11 and divert to collect students from St Andrews, Ferny Grove State School, and Ferny Grove High School, and Ferny Grove Station – the bus number change will avoid student confusion at these school bus stops.
After departing Ferny Grove Station, the service will then revert its display back to School Bus 58 and collect students from Patricks Road State School, approx. 15 minutes later than normal.
All students will therefore arrive home slightly later than normal this afternoon.
For parents and students tracking this service via the TransportMe app – the service will remain as School Bus 58 throughout this afternoon.
School Bus 42 & 43 will be combined.
This service will not operate. In its place, School Bus 42 will load all students from Bray Park High School and will then stop at Genesis and pick up any passengers who would usually catch School Bus 43.
School Bus 42 will then connect with School Bus 41 at the Kurwongbah Pump Station so that any standing passengers can transfer and be seated through to Dayboro.
