Qcity Transit will introduce new timetables from 20 July. At a glance:

- all CBD routes changed to service new interchange off Morisset St. Existing interchange decommissioned bar one stop
- new timetable for Route 831 with most trips now via Fyshwick proper
- significant reduction in Route 834 services
- Route 850 now runs every weekday with increased services

Cosmetically, the existing Qcity timetable has been broken into three (830/3, 831/4 and 832/5/6/7/8/9/40/50). NSW TrainLink and Murrays services for Bungendore are shown in the 832 one.

In other news, Qcity and Transborder (along with most if not all NSW services) are now shown on transportnsw.info which is also apparently flowing through to Google Maps; when I last checked, clicking on a stop within the ACT now brings up ACTION and Qcity times in Google, but stops outside of the ACT aren't yet shown on the map.

Google maps are now providing directions for Q-City routes alongside ACTION routes.

For example if you want to go from Gungahlin to Jerrabomberra it will show you need to catch an ACTION bus first to the city and change to the Q-City bus to Queanbeyan and then change again at Queanbeyan Interchange to Jerrabomberra.

Although there are a few problems such as weekday routes showing up during the weekends.

Transport NSW have uploaded the timetable data for all services in NSW. This includes NSW Trainlink services. For example you can go from Banks to Brisbane:
