Introducing curtinlink – our new and improved free bus service

A new way to get to campus

From Monday, 9 February 2026, CABS will be replaced by curtinlink – Curtin’s new free on-demand mini-bus service.

curtinlink gives you a more flexible way to travel to and from our Bentley campus, without fares, timetables or fixed routes. It’s designed to fit around your day, whether you’re coming in for classes, meetings or time on campus with friends.

What’s changing

CABS operated on set routes and schedules. curtinlink works differently.

With curtinlink, you book a free ride when you need it using the curtinlink app. A nearby virtual pick-up stop will be assigned within 300 metres of your booking location (about a 5-minute walk), and the mini-bus will take you directly to your destination within the service area.

The service is free and available to anyone travelling to or from Bentley campus.

How curtinlink works

Using curtinlink is simple:

• Download the curtinlink app
• Book a free ride within the service area
• A virtual pick-up stop will be assigned within 300 metres of you (that’s about a 5-minute walk!)
• Meet your driver at the virtual stop
• Ride to your destination

You can book as a group and travel together. A wheelchair-accessible bus is available.
