A REVIEW of bus services in Wyndham and Hobsons Bay has begun.
Minister for Public Transport and Member for Altona Lynne Kosky said feedback during the review would be used as the basis for improving local bus services.
“This could include longer hours of operation, more frequent services or extended routes, introducing new routes or restructuring existing ones, and improving linkages with connecting trains,” she said.
The review is part of a $650 million State Government plan to assess the effectiveness of bus services throughout metropolitan Melbourne.
All bus routes in Wyndham, in the suburbs of Werribee, Werribee South, Hoppers Crossing, Wyndham Vale, Tarneit, Truganina and Point Cook, are included in the review.
Routes operating on the western side of Hobsons Bay, including Altona Meadows, Laverton and Seabrook, are also included.
Routes on the eastern side of Hobsons Bay were reviewed last year.
Public workshops will be held in Altona on 20 February and in Werribee on 21 February.
The public is invited to call 9861 2348 or visit www.doi.vic.gov.au/transport.
