Buses, coaches and route taxis

JUTC is the principal scheduled bus operator in St. Andrew. Half Way Tree Transport Centre, at Mandela Park beside Constant Spring Road and Half Way Tree Road, connects with routes for Papine, Stony Hill, Constant Spring, Norbrook, Gordon Town, UWI and August Town. Route 900 links Half Way Tree, Liguania and Papine, with weekday departures listed from 5:15 a.m. in the timetable effective 1 April 2026. Check the JUTC route guide and Route 900 timetable before leaving.

Route taxis carry separate-paying passengers along designated corridors and may stop along the way. Ask the driver or conductor if the vehicle passes your landmark and if you need to change. Route taxis should display red PPV plates, route markings and the required Transport Authority identification. Knutsford Express provides scheduled intercity coaches from 18 Dominica Drive, New Kingston. Confirm its current departure point and schedule through its service information.

Main roads

Half Way Tree Road, Constant Spring Road, Hope Road, Old Hope Road, Mona Road, Washington Boulevard, Hagley Park Road, Red Hills Road and Mountain View Avenue carry much of the local traffic. Roads through Papine, UWI, Gordon Town and the northern districts connect with these central corridors.

Highway 2000, including the Edward Seaga Highway, gives St. Andrew travellers a toll-road connection towards Ocho Rios and the north coast. Traffic, road works and temporary restrictions can change travel times.

Before you travel

Carry Jamaican dollars for buses and route taxis. JUTC supports SmartFare cards, and card and cash fares may differ by programme and date. Confirm the fare, final stop and payment method before departure, especially for private transfers and car rentals. Late-night service varies by district, so check the final departure with the relevant operator.
