Title: Brand New! Route 76
Post by: Irisbus Rider on September 20, 2008, 07:51:21 PM
A new route, known as the 76 will commence on Monday 29th September.

It services the retirement villages neglected by Network '08, and go via Canberra Hospital.

Looks good, and an extra route to gunzel :P

Services are a bit sparse though.

More info, a link to ACTIONs website - http://www.action.act.gov.au/changes_to_timetables.html

I'm excited! :P

Was one supposed to happen?

Maybe Deanes could erect a stop on Canberra Av, so Queanbeyan commuters can access it?

Ah, ok. It'd be stupid to divert the 8, the timing is already way too tight, and the run already takes longer than an Intertown!

But they probably will divert the 8.

They may create a whole new service, but an extension of the 8 is the most likely solution.

They should run the 88 from Woden Interchange, DFO, Alexander Machonochie Centre, Woden Interchange on a loop. That way they can get arrested at DFO for shoplifting, hop on the bus straight to jail, and then when they get out they can head back to their home base of Woden.
