Changes to Late Night Bus services from Newcastle CBDCommencing Friday 2 November, Newcastle Buses will be trialling extra late night services on weekends so that visitors to the CBD will have improved access to bus services to take them home in the early hours of the morning.
The extra late night services will be trialled for a six month period, and patronage will be monitored to determine the level of community support.
