Brisbane City Council will be subject to a raft of "non-compliance" measures for its bus network under a new contract between the council and TransLink.

The measures will force the council to answer to TransLink if it triggers a threshold for the number of buses missing routes, running behind or ahead of schedule, or if quarterly customer satisfaction falls below par.

The council’s transport division manager, Geoffrey Beck, says council delivers more than three million bus trips a year, and on a weekly basis the target is to have no more than 200 bus trips left incomplete.
