Road network changes

From ACT Bus Network Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Route directions used on this Wiki reflect the road network at the time the route was in effect. In the years since, it may no longer be possible to replicate the exact routes due to road closures or realignments due to construction works. In other cases, roads have been renamed.

This page outlines such instances.

Road closures and realignments

Suburb Street Explanation
Bruce Leverrier St Leverrier St previously ran from Battye St, around the northern end of the Stadium to the Eastern Carpark. It has since been realigned to run between Battye St and Ginninderra Dr.
Bruce Tucker St Short connector road between Ginninderra Dr and Masterman St, parallel to and east of Agar Street.
Crace Bellenden St Previously continued across what is now Gungahlin Dr, connecting to Hoskins St in Mitchell.
Pearce Melrose Dr Melrose Dr effectively ran along the alignment of Marr St and Beasley St and along what is now Mawson Dr to Yamba Dr. Both Beasley St and Hodgson Cres terminated at intersections with the former alignment.
Phillip Callam St The southern end of Callam St was realigned to intersect with Athllon Dr instead of Botany St.
Phillip Corinna St Corinna St ran from Melrose Dr, passing the north-east boundary of the Seniors Centre, before continuing along its current path past Furzer St. The old alignment has been partially reused as the entrance road to the Seniors Club.
Lyneham Barton Hwy Previously ran along current alignment of Ellenborough St (from current intersection with Hwy) and Mouat St to Northbourne Ave.
