NEW for 2020

Did you know that Hillcrest runs a morning and afternoon pick up and drop off for Varsity Lakes train station? In 2020, this service to Varsity Lakes station is now FREE of charge. It is subject to seat availability, but unless the uptake exceeds supply, this should not be a problem.

  • AM: Buses will pick up on the Southbound Eastern side of the Station bus stop at 7.55am (Bus 4) and a 2nd bus will pick up at 8.05am (Bus 5)
  • PM: Students are to make their way to Bus 4 along Chocolate Drive no later than 3.05pm. This bus should arrive at the station by 3.15pm (traffic dependent). Drop off will be Northbound Western side of the bus stop.

2020 Changes To Bus Routes

  • Bus Route 3 - This route has been extended to Gilston Hall for both AM & PM runs. AM pick up is 6.55am and PM drop off is 4.10pm
  • Bus Route 4 - This route has had the following change: Turning right into Cottesloe Drive from Manly Drive heading West. The bus will turn right into Tullamarine Drive and continue its usual route.
  • Bus Route 6 -  This route has been extended to Pitcairn Way / Norris Street (Bus Stop) Coles Pacific Pines for both AM & PM runs. AM pick up is 7.10am and PM drop off is 4.10pm
