Transitplus, formerly Hills Transit, was an Australian bus service operator in Adelaide. It operated services as part of the Adelaide Metro network under contract to the Department of Planning, Transport & Infrastructure. It was a 50/50 joint venture between Australian Transit Enterprises and TransAdelaide.
Hills Transit was founded in 1995 during the privatisation of TransAdelaide's bus network as a joint venture between TransAdelaide and Australian Transit Enterprises operating services from the Adelaide central business district to the Adelaide Hills. [1] [2] [3] In May 2000 it was renamed Transitplus. [4] [5] [6] [7]
Following the winding up of TransAdelaide on 30 June 2010, Australian Transit Enterprises took full ownership and integrated Transitplus into its SouthLink operation. [8] [9] [10]
At the time operations ceased in 2010, it operated a fleet of 66 buses. [11]
Transitplus operated out of its main depot in Aldgate with a sub depot in Mount Barker [11]
