Transport ACT

Canberra’s commuters have two more days to comment on the direction of public transport in the ACT, with the online survey set to close on Friday.

The survey, available here, has attracted 2,410 contributors since going live in early May.

Transport minister Meegan Fitzharris said more than 1,000 respondents (46.9%) had described public transport reform as one of the most important issues facing the ACT in 2016.

“I’m confident we are gathering some really valuable information about the way people move around our city, and how we can improve our transport system.

“All this information will help to ensure Transport Canberra, our new agency which gets up and running on 1 July, will be able to focus on a better customer experience for all Canberrans when it comes to transport.

I was disappointed that the survey did not give the option to detail the diseases I have contracted from public transport or the number of occasions I was threatened with a knife.

Not that any of those have actually happened to me, but I have heard…

The gungahlin route is supposed to be the first part of a city wide route for major arterials. There was a survey a little while back asking the best a route to tuggers (erindale dr vs athalon dr being the proposed options.

Its all part of the spin, MERC600. Poor Belconnen, they just get a bus so looks like they miss out on the magical, transformational powers of the Tram !
