Travelling with Metro over Summer 2015-16?

Thursday 24 December 2015 – Sunday 17 January 2016

From Christmas week through until Sunday 17 January 2016, we will have changes to normal timetabled services. Changes include replacement bus services and weekend timetables for public holidays. This will allow for major works on two Level Crossing Removal Projects, the Burke Road (Gardiner Station) and Main Road (St Albans Station) level crossing removals.

The below provides an overview of the summer works changes across the Metro network. For full details on the specific changes to your line, simply click on the line below:
