BONNER and Forde residents can travel on the bus for free for one week on ACTION’s new route 55 starting Monday.
The route, part of ACTION’s Network 12, will connect Bonner and Forde with the Gungahlin Marketplace.
Commuters will receive a free transfer ticket to use on connecting routes within the next 90 minutes. However, if return trips are taken outside the 90 minute transfer period or do not begin on route 55, a fare will need to be paid.
Network 12 will also offer Gungahlin residents: improved frequency on the Red Rapid express service from Gungahlin to Fyshwick (via City) to depart every 10 minutes during the morning peak servicing five additional stops; new services for route 55 on weekdays and route 955 on weekends, will connect Forde and Bonner to Gungahlin Marketplace; weekday and weekend bus services to Casey and Crace; and the redesign of Route 951 to travel via Flemington Road providing a direct link from Gungahlin Marketplace to the City on weekends.
Bonner and Forde residents will be receiving a letter in the mail sometime between Monday, May 28 to Friday, June 1 with details of route 55.
