IMPROVEMENTS to local bus routes are being sought by Kingston Council.
Community consultation is underway to determine Kingston Council’s advocacy priorities for bus route improvements. Council has identified route 828 from Berwick to Hampton, route 708 from Carrum to Hampton, and route 903 from Altona to Mordialloc as services which should be scheduled more frequently.
Kingston mayor Georgina Oxley said “we know there are gaps in the bus network, services that don’t run frequently enough, overcrowded routes, and a lack of connections to train stations and key destinations.” “We’re asking our community to share their ideas and show their support to help us push for real improvements to local bus services,” she said. “This is your chance to tell us what’s important to you and help strengthen our submission to the Victorian Government. Together, we can make a real case for better buses for Kingston.”
Community consultation closes on 3 July. Make a submission at yourkingstonyoursay.com.au/better-buses-for- kingston.
