New & improved bus routes for Redbank & Springfield!
Ipswich has finally got some bus improvements. This is incredibly exciting, especially since this is the beginning of a 3 staged bus improvement to Ipswich that will be rolled out over the coming few years. This has been incredibly needed for a long time as the corridor from Springfield to Ripley is rapidly expanding. Notably, Deebing Heights (4000 residents in the 2021 census) has no bus routes at all. It’s unfortunate that residents will have to wait another year to get a bus - if all goes to plan. The first stage of the bus routes roll out on 17 November 2025, and the translink journey planner has the routes in already. This is an amazing beginning for a better and more well connected public transportation in Ipswich. Additionally, I'm so happy that the 501 exists, and that residents don't have to wait for the postponed or delayed, Ipswich to Springfield Rail corridor to be built.
