Ryde Bus Depot is a bus depot in the Sydney suburb of Ryde operated by Busways.
Ryde Bus Depot opened on 28 June 1953, the same day that Ultimo Tram Depot closed.[1] It initially took over the operation of these routes, which were a combination of tram replacement routes and existing services operated by Burwood Bus Depot:[2]
In December 1999 Sydney Buses purchased the business of North & Western Bus Lines whose depot adjoined.[3] After initially operating as Gladesville depot, both were integrated. However because of the topography of the land, both remain physically separated with each having its own entrance.[4]
In January 2022 it was included in the transfer of Region 7 from State Transit to Busways.[5]
As of August 2024, it has an allocation of 267 buses.[6]
