More buses, more often for the outer west

On 7 December 2025, we’re introducing new bus routes 154 and 194, and upgrading Route 153, delivering more than 1,500 new weekly trips across the three routes.

It’ll be easier to get to trains, other bus routes, schools, jobs and shopping across Werribee, Tarneit, Truganina, Laverton, Harpley, Mambourin, Cornerstone Estate, Hoppers Crossing, Williams Landing and Wyndham Vale.

There will also be some bus stop changes in Tarneit and at Tarneit Station.

These improvements build on changes made in the outer west in July, when we extended operating hours and added 470 extra weekly trips across routes 170, 180, 190 and 192.
