Mount Druitt - St Marys Standard ' New Life For Shopper Hopper Service'

Reporter: Nikolaos Stavrou

Mark Down another victory for the Save Our Bus Services (Sobs) Mt Druitt And Surrounding Suburbs Group.

Sobs Chairman John Svoboda last week told the Mt Druitt-St Marys Standard that the route 674 Shopper Hopper Service was due to be reinstated from April 27.

Six each-way services would run daily Monday to Friday, with two daily each-way services on Saturday and one each-way services on Sundays.

Mr Svoboda stressed the route was still to be approved by Blacktown Council, but the service would be a major step forward for residents.

"it's going to make a lot of people very happy," he said.

" We don't know the specific time and they'll probably have gaps (where there'll be no buses) but we can always work that out later on.

"This service will even cater for the people of the western end (of Gasmata Crescent), up near Whalan Reserve."

Mr Svoboda said the service would run from Windsor to Mount Druitt,

From Luxford Road ( after Waikanda Crescent), it will turn right into Gasmata Crescent and right into Moresby Crescent.

Then it will turn right into Samarai Road, right into Luxford Road and then onto Mount Druitt.



From the chairperson: only thing that needs to changed is 'Turn left into Samarai Road'!
