ANU-Civic Loop goes electric
***Update 21 April 2026***
The campus loop bus is now trialing a brand-new electric bus throughout the pilot, offering a quieter, lower-emissions way to travel across campus. The bus seats 24 passengers and includes space for two wheelchairs, supporting accessible transport for our community.
Whisper-quiet on the road and fitted with regenerative braking to improve efficiency, the electric bus has a range of approximately 350km, more than enough to comfortably complete the loop each day before recharging overnight.
Please note: the electric bus may be temporarily replaced by a non-electric bus if it is unavailable or undergoing maintenance.
Route update (20 April to 1 June)
From 20 April to 29 May the ANU-Civic Loop Bus will be trialing a new route.
The service will now stop near Yukeembruk Village and Wamburun Hall. The next stop will then be outside Burton & Garran Hall, before continuing the usual loop. During this time, the stop on Daley Road outside John XXIII will be out of service.
A further route adjustment, including a stop near Crawford School, is planned during the Semester Break. More will be shared once details are finalised.
