Research confidence

20%

Clear overall intent, incomplete map: three parts and a missing southwest connecting circuit.

A weighted assessment of the research supporting this unverified route reference. It is not a probability that a bus runs today, a service guarantee, or a measure of timetable accuracy.

Why this score?
  • Historical source clarity10 / 20

    The named roundabout return makes broad loop intent clear, but large place-based transitions and historical return differences leave substantial ambiguity.

  • Mapped extent completeness5 / 20

    A major Adelaide-to-Clifton-to-Lyford southwest connecting circuit is missing, rather than merely a small terminal or ordering detail.

  • Geometry consistency5 / 20

    Three disconnected parts, eleven sequence breaks, five local direction conflicts and two degenerate transitions show extensive unresolved geometry.

  • Recent direct field evidence0 / 20

    No completed, reviewed ride record for this route is attached to the research baseline. Historical descriptions, map edits and unreviewed reports do not establish a currently observed full journey.

  • Independent field corroboration0 / 20

    No accepted independent check corroborates a dated route-specific field record in this baseline. Reuse of the historical official description is not independent observation.

What still needs checking

  • The Adelaide-to-Clifton Pier/Mt Pleasant/Lyford Cay connection is incomplete; OSM jumps from Adelaide way 405767656 to Lyford Cay Drive way 721757642 rather than providing the missing circuit.
  • The PDF downtown return Princess→Baillou is compressed. The 2010 notice instead specifies Princess→Market→Robinson→Baillou→Carmichael, a concrete competing historical circulation.
  • Coral Harbour roundabout approach/exit and terminal use require exact movements even though the same named roundabout closes the description.
  • Neither a terminal airport pickup nor a complete 12B shape is established. Keep 12B separate from 12.

    Passenger report from Sandyport to downtown
