"The new SmartBus is to commence in approximately 2 months" Judy Maddigan announced today, and it will provide a link from Essendon Station to the DFO.
Judy said "A number of locals have expressed a desire for a link to the DFO, and their views were passed onto the Minister for Transport".
The new route will come up Buckley Street to the Essendon Station to the DFO and onto Bell Street. This new service will extend from Altona to Mordialloc.
SmartBus services have the ability to change traffic lights from red to green to deliver speedier and more reliable services.
