All points you...Continual improvement has happened. All points you listed for buses was implemented after Swimming on the evening of the 10th. Buses from every source imaginable, including private school buses and those "sight-seeing" buses (including some sight-seeing ones) were in service. There were clear bays for people to wait. They separated the "offloading" and "loading" bays so that there was only one direction of people, and one bus could be loading while another was still offloading people. The buses did run in convoy, they also had multiple staff proactively informing people and double checking patrons were in the right lanes. The Helensvale train station staff and procedures were particularly efficient.<br /><br />The train frequency from GC to BNE of a morning has been surprisingly busy. I'd recommend this should be the standard frequency in the 6am to 8am (leaving from GC) peak, and 4pm to 6:30 peak.<br /><br />The only big down side has been the NGR fleet are very hot with patrons all clearly sweating even though the doors have been shut most of the journey. The NGR is, however, MUCH quieter.Philip Leitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10575105615763301952noreply@blogger.com
