WIN News reporting that ALL buses will now be getting bike racks, with free travel for cyclists, as part of the sustainable transport plan.

How long will it take?

My guess 20 years less if we're unlucky.

Seeing as though it's an election year, it might come quicker then you think.

Miracle.

Damn... it'll look shit on the older fleet.

There is a lot of action around the workshops, when I walked past today at a distance it looked like they were applying fleet numbers to the front of many MK2s

Here is the list of the Renaults which will be fitted with bike racks, at least for now. This is from the permit which is kept in the bus:

PR100.2: 915, 926, 927, 928, 929, 930, 932, 933, 934, 946, 947, 948, 949, 950, 951, 952, 953, 954, 955, 961, 962, 963, 964, 965, 966, 967, 968, 969, 980, 981

PR100.3: 127, 128, 129, 130, 131

Since it's more than 20 either some will be the new style or else the old racks might start being taken from the Scanias.

Odd. They must be purchasing more of the old yellow type.

Add 953, they are taking their time. What is really hypocritical is that cyclists get free travel but people in wheelchairs still have to pay a fare.

946 looks like it has a new yellow one. It is really shiny and not faded like the others.

They must have ordered more of the old style ones as there is 21 Renaults out there all will the old style, unless they had some spares lying around.

They probably did order the older ones. It's not as though they don't make them anymore.

Not really, they originally said they would fit every Belconnen 100.2 higher than 915. They've done that (excluding the Tuggy transfers).

Still have 915, 930, 931, 932 and 962 to come. When will they start with the rest. They said that all buses will have them. More .3s would be a good start, Belco have most of them

If you ask me they don't look that bad with bike racks. People say that by putting bike racks on the front of a bus but with some bodies it doesn't and the 100.3 is one of those buses.

969 is getting around without a bike rack at the moment..

Maybe it was involved in an accident and the bike rack was damaged

Douche bags? WTF?

ACTION are finally coming to their senses, by removing all bike racks!

I say douche bags as they obviously have no idea what they are doing.

930, 931 and 932 gain bike racks as 964 and 965 loose theirs.

952 has the new style of Bike Rack.

Irisbus Rider

The black style?

Snorzac

#38
March 09, 2009, 06:43:39 PM
yep, well, I guess I really shouldn't say new because we have had it for a while now but it is new to the PR100s

Irisbus Rider

Technically not new to the 100.2s, the first ever bike rack on a 100.2 was on 947 and was a black style one.

Just to be nitpicky!

Not Renault related but 359 has a new style as well, I also saw a Scania going around without one.

The reason why 952 now has a DL2 model instead of a VeloPorter 2 might (or might not) be related to the yellow paint which can be seen on the wall at the Belconnen Interchange layover.

The paint may also be the reason for 359s change, anyway 966 has now got its bike rack back.

962 has a new style, which means all the buses that Martin said would have them have had them/still have them.

Thanks to Martin I can confirm that 969 has unfortunently regained its bike rack.

964, 980 and 981 now have bike racks.

suprisingly 963 and 967 have also regained bike racks

as does 965. Could this bring an end to musical bike racks.
