The University provides shuttle buses to assist students and staff travelling between campuses for the purpose of attending lectures or attending to University business. There are two services, both of which are operated for the University by the Brisbane City Council. The 391 service operates between Gardens Point and Kelvin Grove campuses and the 392 service operates between the Kelvin Grove and Carseldine campuses.
QUT staff and students will be able to travel free on routes 391 and 392 but will need to show the driver their QUT identity card. Apart from the "hail and ride" stops mentioned the shuttle buses do not make intermediate stops when travelling between the campuses. While every reasonable attempt is made to adhere to the timetable arrival and departure times the services are affected by traffic conditions and there may be some delays during the course of the day, particularly at peak travel times. It is therefore recommended that you plan accordingly.
Both services operate year round except on weekends, public holidays and the days between Christmas Day and New Years Day when the University is closed.
The 391 timetable varies in frequency during the year to become a 15 minute service during semester 1 and 2.
- Musk Avenue (close to the corner of Victoria Park Road)
- Musk Avenue (close to the corner of Carraway Street)
The first stop listed is the one used for timetabling Kelvin Grove campus arrival and departure times. The second stop is a "hail and ride" or set down stop only. The bus will not wait at this stop.
The Gardens Point stop used by the 391 service is BCC stop 95 located in Alice Street (close to the intersection with George Street).
The 392 timetable does not vary in frequency throughout the year. At Carseldine the service operates from BCC stop 54 located on Beams Road (close to the corner of Dorville Road). At Kelvin Grove the service operates from the QUT Kelvin Grove bus station located on the Inner Northern Busway. The 392 service includes an intermediate set down or pick up point at Bus Stop 9 which is located on Bowen Bridge Road near the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital. Stop 9 is a 'hail and ride' or set down stop only and the bus will not wait at this stop.
The 391 and 392 timetables are also available on WAP compatible mobile phones at wap.qut.com including searchable timetables, bus stops and interchanges.
The Route 66 bus service operates exclusively on the South East busway and Inner Northern busway between Wooloongabba and QUT Kelvin Grove. This service stops at all bus stations between Wooloongabba and QUT Kelvin Grove except ‘The Myer Centre’. Route 66 buses will run every 10 minutes in peak hour and every 15 minutes off peak on week-days between 6.30am until 8.00pm. Rail and bus connections may be made at the following locations:
- Wooloongabba
- Mater Hill
- South Bank
- Cultural Centre
- City (King George Square)
- Roma Street
The 393 bus service is an alternative for staff and students who travel by train from the northern and north western areas of Brisbane as it will link with trains at the Bowen Hills railway station.
If you live in the eastern suburbs of Bulimba or Morningside or in their vicinity this service may also be a viable transport option as it will also link with Brisbane Transport ferry services through the Bulimba ferry terminal. Please note that this service now terminates at the Normanby bus station so does not continue into the city.
