ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

The following answer to a question was provided:

Tuggeranong Bus Service
(Question No. 8)

Mr Jensen asked the Minister for Housing and Urban Services, upon notice, on 27 June 1989:

When will a direct bus service from Tuggeranong to Civic be introduced.

Mrs Grassby: ACTION has provided the following answer to Mr Jensen's question:

ACTION proposes to extend the direct town centre to town centre express route 333 to the Tuggeranong town centre in September 1989. This service will operate initially Monday to Friday 7.00 am to 6.30 pm at approximately 15-minute intervals during peak periods and 30-minute intervals during the off-peak period. A number of details are still to be resolved but when this is done the new service will be widely publicised.

The route 333 extension will operate via Hindmarsh Drive and the Tuggeranong Parkway to maximise service reliability during the peak periods.

After ACTION's bus depot and bus station in the Tuggeranong town centre are completed next year, the Tuggeranong Valley route network will be upgraded to provide integrated services to the town centre and the rest of Canberra. Proposals will be released for public comment later this year.
