South Australia is fortunate to have a well connected public transport system.
However as I live in an outer suburb, which is metro for some things and not others, we have a system of huge buses trundling through our streets.
My question to the transport authorities is why do we need buses that are massively oversized for the job they do.
The most I have seen on a connecting bus was while the Noarlunga train line was being upgraded.
Other than that a mini bus 20 seater would be quite adequate for our needs.
Why do we persist in supplying these huge monoliths that have difficulty getting around the small streets and corners.
Environmentally and passenger friendly journeys could be a reality.
We just need to step outside an outmoded way of planning and delivering services.
