The service quickly expanded to become twice daily. From circa 1937, a second service commenced from Tea Tree Gully to One Tree Hill.〔"Bowman's Bus Services" ''Australian Bus'' issue 65 September 2014 pages 10-19〕 A second service from Tea Tree Gully to Adelaide via North East Road later commenced.
