Leuven Bus Routes Deconstructed

The link to bus routes from the KU Leuven site (http://www.kuleuven.be/transportation/pdf/bus_bike_map2010.pdf) gives you this sphagetti-mass of bus routes.


I've extracted from it some routes of interest to me (based on my current destinations), but these criss-cross the city in a north-south and east-west fashion, and connect the main train station to the university (Arenberg campus) and might be useful to other new newbies to the bus system here.

Clicking on a bus stop on Google Maps also gives you a list of bus numbers routing through that stop.
The Leuven bus website, for more timetables: LIJN.
A word of advice: buying a lot of 10 tickets at the train station is 1 euro cheaper per ticket than buying it on the bus.
