This month we have recieved a request for our featured privately operated by route from Lachlan Culverhouse. It is for Route 596 operated by Transdev NSW. The 596 is a loop service operating from Hornsby Station to Hornsby Heights and return.

The service runs between 5am and 10pm Monday to Friday with a half hourly frequency increasing to every 15 minutes at peak times. On Saturdays the service runs between 7am and 7pm on an approximate frequency of every 45 minutes. On Sundays the service runs between 8am and 6pm on a hourly frequency.

This service is located in Region 12 and is operated out of Transdev NSW’s Mount Kuring-Gai depot. This service is regularly operated by wheelchair accessible buses but some services are on older high floored buses. The buses operating the route include those with Mercedes Benz, Scania and Volvo chassis and Custom Coaches or Volgren bodywork.
