KENWICK TRAIN STATION — UPGRADES
302. Hon SAMANTHA ROWE to the
parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to question without notice 235 and the suggestion
that commuters who usually use the train service from Kenwick could access bus
routes 220 and 229 as alternatives to connect them to the city during the
closure period.
(1) Does bus route 229 take
commuters to the city?
(2) If not, what other public
transport services are available to commuters needing to reach the city?
(3) What time does the last bus on
route 220 leave the city in the afternoon/evening?
(4) What
arrangements have been put in place for people who leave the city after the
time of the last route 220 bus service?
