It was a good way of getting to the dawn service. It was a shame that there was no return service. Perhaps next time if you run x number of buses from a destination then just maybe you need to run at least the same number of buses for the return journey.

We were stranded at the AWM with no way of returning to Belconnen – not on Action anyway. Waited 50 plus mins after the service and no sign of any Belconnen buses. The Action guys that were at the AWM also had no information.

Disorganised chaos for something that shouldn’t be too difficult to organise.
