Buses in Sydney

Sydney Bus route 308 is a Sydney Buses operated bus route in Sydney, Australia.

Route 308 originated as a direct replacement for the former Alexandria tram route between the city and St Peters railway station via Alexandria which closed in 1959. The route was extended to Marrickville Metro Shopping Centre upon the centres opening in 1987. Peak hour services are well patronised, especially due to high density housing developments in Alexandria, however off peak services were reduced in frequency in 2006 due to a bus driver shortage and low off-peak patronage. Most services operated to and from Millers Point until July 2006 when all runs were cut back to Gresham Street.
