I thought the ACT Govt had already done this, maybe because the current bus system is so poor, or maybe because conducting a customer survey seems like a sensible idea… Anyway, the ABC reports this latest idea to fix all of our bus network issues.

If you want to have your say, why not complete the ACTION bus survey.

that problem can only be solved by more people catching the bus.

it is an unhealthy society that has no public transport

There was an interesting letter in the Canberra Times today. It turns out that because of the inefficiencies and poor patronage on Action buses, the amount of fossil fuels consumed per passenger kilometre was actually higher for bus passengers than it was for people driving their own cars.

Totally agree – not a well-written survey. It can’t possibly have been designed to be useful. Plenty of room at the end for comments, but I don’t see how they’re going to deal with all that data. SIGH!!

Six question, I mean. No points for guessing where most of my mind is right now.

Well I tried the survey. I’d suggest it was a ten minute, Friday afternoon job. The ten minutes was mostly for the writing of, not the creation of.

I think for an issue as complex as this, a sex question, static questionnaire isn’t going to do more than touch the surface.
