  • From 17 December, passengers on Route 538 will travel direct along Camp Road, making for a more reliable and faster journey. This change provides a more direct journey for Somerset Estate residents to Broadmeadows.
  • Route 538 Somerset Estate – Broadmeadows via Camp Road will no longer travel via Holberry, Walsh, Graham and Widford streets.
  • Route 538 will continue to run every 40 minutes on weekdays and weekends.
  • On Saturdays, passengers will benefit with six additional afternoon trips in each direction providing greater flexibility when to travel.
  • Residents surrounding Holberry, Walsh, Graham and Widford can access Route 538 or SmartBus 902 from Camp Road.

Passengers should check the timetable before they travel.
