Anne, one of our group members travels to Mount Druitt Village from Whalan and spoke to a prominent business lady in this area and didn't realise she was doing her own research of the affect of bus services since the new time tables were introduced.
What seems to be the problem here is the shop owners are saying that they have found there are hardly any buses taking community members to Mount Druitt Village. With this seems to provide a definate neglect from the NSW Government to provide better bus services to get the elderly community to Mount Druitt Village.
The reduction of bus services prevents the elderly community from participating and discourages people to have faith in these bus services. Sometimes they wait days for lift from another neighbour to take them to shops or pay for cabs fares! Is this fair?
Although there is the 739v service that is going to Mount Druitt Village this is a very limited service!
