Colours range from deep red for a service that comes every 10 minutes or better, to teal-blue for hourly services.

Using the legend, you can toggle different levels of frequency to see - for example - which areas of Melbourne are served by routes which come every 15 minutes.

Also, I made an experimental dark mode - still think I need to hone the colours a bit.

Currently the map includes Whittlesea, Darebin, Banyule, Nilumbik, Manningham, Whitehorse, Maroondah, Yarra Ranges, Monash, Knox, Bayside, Kingston and Greater Dandenong.

If your area is not on it, don't worry I will expand it until all of Melbourne is covered.

Also want to shout out my friends who have helped give feedback, spell checks (I can't really spel) and advice. I could not have done it without the support.

How would you "Fill the gaps?"

We can see there are sorta four broad families of routes: Collins, Flinders/La Trobe/Bourke, Elizabeth, and Swanston, with 58 and (especially) 78 hanging out on their own.

The one route that breaks these four categories is the 96, with the overlap with 12 and 109 in South Wharf and 16 at St Kilda.

The most similar routes of course are 5 and 64
