Kinetic is the proud operator of intercity bus services across Tasmania. Services operate from Devonport to Launceston and Launceston to Hobart and back again.
To keep services moving on arterial roads, certain stops between Hobart and Latrobe require a booking, please consult the timetable for booking only stops. This allows Intercity services to stay on the highway unless there is a customer, making travel faster and more efficient.
How do I know if I need to prebook?
Stops are marked on the timetable with a B when a booking is required. You can find the timetable here
Bookings are required for stops marked ‘bookings only’ and recommended for other stops to guarantee a seat, especially in busy times. Passengers with a disability requiring wheelchair access need to book 48 hours in advance to ensure a wheelchair lift bus is allocated to the service.
How early should I be at the bus stop?
Check-in or be at your bus stop 20 minutes before your bus is scheduled to depart to allow for loading and on-time departure for all passengers.
Should I hail the bus?
Yes we recommend you signal the bus driver by hailing the bus. This helps the driver identify waiting passengers.
Do buses have wheelchair lifts?
Passengers with a disability requiring wheelchair access need to book 48 hours in advance to ensure a wheelchair lift bus is allocated to the service.
Everyone is welcome on board our services.
If you are travelling with a mobility aid (such as wheelchairs), and other disability mobility aids such as ride-on scooters and motorised vehicles, prior to travelling, please use the checklist as a guide for what aids can be accommodated on our accessible fleet.
