Route 18R replaces tram service between Kauppi Campus and the city centre. The route follows the tram line as closely as possible. However, the underpass on Itsenäisyydenkatu will be closed on summer 2026, so the replacement bus service will operate via Yliopistonkatu and Hatanpään valtatie.

Bus 18R stops at bus stops along the detour route. No fixed timetable is usually available for the detour route, as disruptions are sudden and short-term. Some departures of route 18 will be cancelled during the disruption to allow the bus to complete the detour via the city center. Cancelled departures will appear crossed out in the timetable services.
