I am pleased to announce the high frequency 980 bus trial operating between Caringbah Station and Lilli Pilli Point has been extended until December 2020.
This is to fully assess the patronage potential over a longer duration and determine suitable next steps.
The high frequency bus service is being trialled at Lilli Pilli Point and Caringbah Station using new look buses. Transport for NSW is using the trial to learn more about encouraging people to use public transport for the first and last segment of their journey.
Patronage trends and customer research during the initial trial have indicated positive growth, with customers shifting from private vehicle to bus due to the improved frequency and convenient connection to trains, especially in the PM peak period.
The 980 Turn Up and Go bus trial operates every 10 minutes during the AM and PM peaks along Port Hacking Road Monday to Friday, 6:05am to 8:45am to Caringbah Station (Hay Ave Shops bus stop) and 4:10pm to 8:10pm to Lilli Pilli Point.
Customers can tap on and off using their Opal card, credit and debit cards or linked smart devices.
Opal bus fares apply and customers will receive all Opal travel rewards, such as the $2 Opal transfer discount for adult fares, if they change between a train and a bus within 60 minutes from the last tap off.
I encourage that you plan your trip at www.transportnsw.info

If you guys put Don Harwin back in you’ve learnt nothing. IDC what faction… What leader challenges a covid fine when so many people did exactly the same thing and got fined. None. Then all his rigging and the epic failure Don should never work in politics again.
Last night a gathering at the NSW Parliament witnessed an extraordinary moment — the conferral of one of France’s highest honours, upon two remarkable individuals: Silas Despreaux and Damien Guérot.
This decoration is a solemn recognition of extraordinary courage.
On 13 April 2024, Australia witnessed a tragedy that will long be etched in our national memory. A brutal stabbing attack at Bondi Junction took six innocent lives and wounded many more.
In those terrifying moments, when instinct tells us to run, two men — Silas and Damien — chose to stand.
With only bollards in their hands, they ran towards the danger, towards the unknown.
They warned civilians, helped usher them to safety, and positioned themselves between a knife-wielding attacker and innocent lives.
They later joined Inspector Amy Scott — herself a hero — and offered their strength and resolve.
Their actions were spontaneous, fearless, and deeply human.
It is fitting that France has chosen to honour them — and here in Australia, we too honour them – recognising not only their courage but also how their actions reflect the longstanding friendship and cooperation between our two nations. ... See MoreSee Less

You are potentially the next premier, so now is the time to outline a grand plan to cover Sydney in fast, efficient metro lines. This can be paid for by selling land rights over existing rail corridors.
Disabled clown mp reading out an email in senate claiming he was bullied by it, absolutely soft and disgusting for someone whose entire salary and lifestyle is paid by the tax payer to think that listening to the tax payer is bullying, you are everything wrong with the liberal party and politics in Australia in general and the party will never get anywhere as long as morally bankrupt soft clowns like you stick your hand out and keep asking for our money
