History

On 3 August 1953, route 150 Palm Beach to Wynyard station was renumbered 190. In the 1990s, route 190 services were renumbered as L90 to designate it was a limited stops service. Early morning and late night all-stops services continue to operate as route 190. Most services use high capacity articulated buses. It was also extended from Wynyard station to Railway Square. In October 2015, this latter section was withdrawn.

Route L90 is known for its ocean scenery along the journey. It is also popular with hikers planning to walk from Palm Beach back towards Sydney.

In March 2013 Australian diecast model company Transit Graphics released a 1:76 scale model of a Mercedes-Benz O305 bus operating on route L90.
