Alfred Street, buses

This green CBD shuttle is a free bus service that circles the Central Business District between Circular Quay and Central Railway Station. Route 555 operates every ten minutes and runs mainly along George Street and Elizabeth Street, in both directions. This service is popular with locals and tourists and connects well with rail, buses, ferries, light rail and the monorail. This bus stop is located on Alfred Street, close to Circular Quay. One of the regular blue Sydney Buses can be seen behind it.

    It seems that the green bus has a great utility for people. Nice shot.

    That's interesting ! It's rather rare to see green buses, they are white, red, yellow or blue but green I have never seen I think.

    I think our city could have one single long snaking line of a bus that simply rotates around the city. Sometimes it seems as though that is already the case with upwards of a dozen buses end on end charging down George St.

    And wait until it is replaced by a tram/light rail. The numbers travelling will increase many times.
