Busways Do Not Want To Provide Further Extended Services for 755!


Today I received a letter (actually 3 letters: same letter copies in 3 different envelopes) about  the rejection  from Busways of further extending the current service to Dean Park and then to Blacktown. 

Do they think we're stupid? They say easy transfers to obtain Busways 754! Fantastic! What they are saying is,forget about the people in the western part of Mount Druitt - They will will have to go to Mount Druitt catch another bus to inconvenience them ( that is heading south and go back north and then North East at Blacktown)

I can assure you that My Zone tickets have nothing to do with rezoning buses within the same bus region 1 -  they are zoning tickets - that is also stupid and the existence of pensior tickets has always been there for an established time. Information Officer from Busways get into the real world and think twice.

The new services does not satisfy most travel needs - get real - 3000 petitions provided to the then Minister of Transport. Your bus operators have always pointed the blame on bus routes to NSW for Transport or previously NSW Transport. Would this be done if this was a government run bus route  not for likely!

And finally minor destinations Glendinning, Dean Park or Marayong. So For Mount Druitt commuters they are minor destinations - Busways are based in Pymble does that mean Macquarie Park, Hornsby or Gordon is minor destinations. People live, study, visit and work in Glendinning (even bus drivers), Dean Park and Marayong  and they are minor areas for this to happen, as proposed to what you think. 


Wake up Australia - we are not living in the dark ages - but you make it appear this way! 
How about you travel from West Mount Druitt to Blacktown via your 2 bus services and see if your information is correct and whether 2 bus services are warranted!
