Brookvale Bus Depot is a bus depot in the Sydney suburb of Brookvale operated by Keolis Downer Northern Beaches.

History

Following the closure of the Manly tram network in 1939, all Northern Beaches buses had been stabled at the increasingly overcrowded former Manly Tram Depot. To alleviate this, a new depot opened on 5 October 1952 on Pittwater Road, Brookvale.[1]

As of December 2023, it has an allocation of 224 buses.[2] In October 2021 it was included in the transfer of region 8 from State Transit to Keolis Downer Northern Beaches.[3]
