An empty board is the good news: it means Adelaide Metro has no active alert on these routes. It does not tell you when the next bus leaves — for that, open the route timetable or the journey planner. Alerts can also be planned works announced days ahead.
The 801 (and its limited-stop T801) runs seven days along Mount Barker Road, so it is the route most Hahndorf trips to the city or to Mount Barker use. The freeway 860F and Nairne 841F are weekday-only; the N801 covers Saturday night into Sunday morning.
Adelaide Metro's live feed calls this corridor the 801. Some older signs and printed guides still say 864 — it is the same Mount Barker Road service. If a number here looks unfamiliar, check the timetable page.
