Route 8 runs at frequencies of around 15 minutes throughout the day, ensuring you won't have to wait long to catch your ride. The core schedule immediately south of the city provides access via Colombo Street to the shopping hub of Sydenham, with alternating trips to Ara Polytechnic (every 30 minutes) until 5:30pm on weekdays.
