NBus rides again around Stoke!
07/08/2018 11:04am
A new look NBus service is back on the streets of Stoke.
There are five services every weekday, starting from the Tennis Courts at Main Road Stoke and travelling around the suburb between Saxton Road East, Quarantine Road, The Ridgeway and Seaview Road.
The first bus of the day leaves at 9.15am and the final one is at 2.15pm. That means the Stoke Loop is always FREE to Super Gold Card users. Otherwise there is a flat fare of $2.50 for adults and $1.50 for children (children under 5 are free on all NBus services).
The Stoke Loop is a “Hail and Ride” service so there is no need to wait at a formal bus stop. Just signal the driver and the bus will stop where it is safe to do so. You might be able to catch it right on your doorstep!
Other changes
The new low floor buses on all local routes are looking fantastic and they make it so much easier to get on and off. People with prams can wheel them right on to the bus and wheelchair users or people with limited mobility will find them much more convenient.
We also made some minor timetable changes on other routes that started on 30 July, including weekend services between Nelson and Richmond running until later in the day.
Grab a copy of the new timetable from the depot on Bridge Street, the Council office or libraries and get all the details online on the NBus website.
