I am pleased to announce that the Route 987 Cronulla to Kurnell bus service will double from 11 January, with around 70 extra weekly services being added to the current timetable.
The Cronulla to Kurnell route will see improved service frequency every day of the week, including extended hours particularly in the evenings.
The priority is to encourage more people out of their cars and onto public transport by providing more frequent services that gives more choice and flexibility around when people travel.
Currently there are service gaps during off-peak periods of up to 90 minutes on weekdays and four hours on weekends. The improvements will address this with a more consistent service offering across the board.
From 11 January 2021:
– Customers will have a service every 30 minutes in peak AM and PM periods, with services every 60 minutes in off-peak.
– The first trip departs from Cronulla rail station at 5.45am and the last departs at 8.30pm.
– Saturday services will depart Cronulla rail station from 7am, with a service every 60 minutes until the last trip at 8.00pm.
– On Sundays, the first trip will depart at 7.45am, with a service every 60 minutes until the last trip at 6.45pm.
Since 2011, more than 38,000 additional weekly bus services have been delivered in NSW, including over 1,000 in the Sutherland Shire region.
The new timetable commences on 11 January. You can plan your journey from 28 December at www.transportnsw.info
The NSW Liberals and Nationals have successfully secured a Parliamentary Inquiry into the explosion of illegal tobacco in NSW. The Minns Labor Government’s inaction has seen the number of tobacconists in NSW increase from 14,500 more than 19,500 in four years and an outbreak of violent crime in our communities as criminals fight for control of the illicit market. ...

About time they did something. These illegal tobacco shops are paying no taxes, yet legitimate businesses have to sell products at 4x the cost of cheap cigarettes, including all taxes., excise/ gst/ income tax etc
This is great
These situation has been created by government by over taxing tobacco and virtually putting it out of reach of the average smoker the last time I looked smoking was still legal !!! This photo was taken just the other day at Woolworths !!! If these criminals can import container loads of cigarettes from overseas you can only imagine how easy it is to import hard drugs such as ice and heroin etc etc that are destroying our children’s lives !!!
I’d like to give you the heads up Mark the person you are with is not Germesh Singh !!!

We need more metro lines
Our war memorials are sacred places — built by communities, cared for by volunteers and cherished by generations.
If someone desecrates them, they should be held accountable, but we’ve seen an increase in this sort of vandalism.
When Parliament resumes, the NSW Liberals and Nationals will introduce legislation to toughen penalties.
Under the Opposition’s Bill:
✅The maximum summary penalty (ie without the need for an expensive jury trial) for damaging a war memorial will increase to $22,000 or two years imprisonment, or both (from just $4,400 and no jail option at the moment)
✅The maximum penalty for offensive or indecent conduct near a memorial will also rise to $22,000
✅Offenders will be required to pay for repairs unless there are special circumstances, so that custodians like local Councils, RSL sub-branches and not-for-profit organisations don’t have to foot the bill. ... See MoreSee Less
