Underwood Road Bus Turnaround

Underwood bus tun around near temple

Project overview

We are making it easier and safer to visit one of our city’s most popular cultural and sporting precincts at Underwood Road, Priestdale.

We have converted the end of Underwood Road into a sealed cul-de-sac, and constructed a new, designated bus passenger set down area in front of the Fo Guang Shan Chung Tian Temple. These changes have enabled a Translink route extension to service the temple and benefit users and visitors of the Underwood Park sporting and community precinct.

This local upgrade was delivered under our Protocol and Grants Program, funded in part by the Australian Government’s Investing in Our Communities Program.

Latest update

The project is now complete.

 

The Translink 578 bus service commenced at this stop at 6:00am on Monday 20 January 2025.
