Mr Conlon said 86 timetables had been overhauled.

"From January 2011, 28 new and upgraded routes will begin operating across the city to ensure Adelaide Metro services are where they are needed most, when they are needed most," he said.

"Our $2 billion investment is delivering an extra 20 new buses a year for four years, with 60 already in operation, providing for more than 400 immediate additional services where they are needed most at key times of the day.

"And in this year's State Budget the State Government delivered on its election commitment to provide a further 20 new buses for the outer north and south."
