Depots and suburbs

I was interested could some one list a list of the canberra suburbs and the depot that primarily catters for each of theses suburbs i.e
Hawker - belconen depot
Calwell- tuggeranong depot

If you can't do such a simple but time-consuming and pointless task yourself why would you expect anyone else to do it for you?

It's not so black and white anymore, but generally the Tuggers buses handle south of the lake, Belconnen handles north of it. There is a fair bit of crossover though, all depends on shifts.

Actually, it's fairly easy. Just list all of Canberra's suburbs, exclude those that don't have a bus service (such as Casey and Bonner), then next to each suburb write "Belconnen / Tuggeranong".

It's a pointless exercise because every suburb is serviced by both depots. I doubt that you could name me any suburb which is exclusively serviced only by buses from a single depot (but I challenge you to try).

Glen Eagles, never done a run there from B!

Glen Eagles is not a suburb. (Kambah is the suburb.)

Red hill seems to have all buses from tuggers

I caught a Tuggers bus (Gas Scania) today to Gungahlin, and have caught Belco buses around Woden, and Tuggers buses around Belconnen.

No it doesn't. I have driven countless 935s from Belconnen depot and the occasional 6.

By the way, this thread has no connection with "Infrastructure". It belongs either in "Fleet" or "Route and Timetables". Can a moderator please move it? Or delete it? Take your pick.
