Bayswater Bus Service Changes - After

[@MightyBeans-p1p]

I was catching up with family today... Saw the stops around Maylands and Central ave. Here's to changing, planned changes. Thanks Mark 👍

[@AbsintheBabe]

19:35 That bus bay probably isn't used pursuant to Transperth's design standard specifying a certain area around the physical stand be clear, with a waiting area for wheelchairs with enough space to move around blah blah blah. So they put it in some sand outside someone's house (note that private land usually starts at the mailbox)

[@TransportofPerth]

They weren't talking about that but ok.

[@justinmaster86]

Oops... saw the word bus stand and I thought it's the 46 thing... deleted that already just to prevent confusion

[@AbsintheBabe]

@@justinmaster86 Next time please just edit it and say nevermind or something

[@Larwood.]

It's funny cos in London it's quite common for a bus route to terminate at a bus garage (depot), there will just be a bus stop in front of the garage. Looks like transperth just forgot the stop lol

[@AbsintheBabe]

I believe the route formerly operating on Embleton Avenue was a Route 955 deviation to a former "Activ Industries" location in Embleton. I have a pre-2010 screenshot of the area on Transperth's defunct "Area Maps" not showing any normal routes along that stretch of roads

[@TransportofPerth]

Ah ok that makes sense. Thanks.

[@RosieandMint4life]

Yep that’s most likely true

[@AbsintheBabe]

I quite distinctly remember it from past timetables, but they are no longer

[@TransportofPerth]

Yes I found the timetable with the deviation listed on Wayback Machine. web.archive.org/web/20111119155852/www.transperth.wa.gov.au/timetablePDFs/Eastern%2099%2020110731.pdf

56:44 that filed is from the old Belmont spur kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJqxo4epoplqq8ksi=NVCOTAR4g7AIRAWx

When the ellenbook line opens would the 46 bus route go to Morley station instead of Embelton

[@TransportofPerth]

Yes

[@SuzieQ1234]

Hello, great videos, thank you. Do you know please what bus numbers took over the old 48 and 55 routes please? I catch the bus from stop 11643 (Guildford Rd Maylands) into the city, and after being off work for a few months recovering from surgery I have forgotten; except for number 40. I rang the Transperth line and hung up after over 30 mins. Many thnaks and sorry to use you as an info line! Cheers.

[@TransportofPerth]

@@SuzieQ1234 Yes, route 40 has fully replaced route 48. Unfortunately, route 55 was not replaced fully and instead changed to route 45 between Bayswater and Bassendean, while the section along Guildford Road after Bayswater has lost the route and now has reduced frequency (this is the only section of the area that got disadvantaged by the changes). The frequency after Maylands Shopping Centre has been restored with new route 43. But yes, unfortunately since you live between Maylands Shops and King William Street your frequency has been halved and the only bus available to you now is route 40, unless you take a short walk to Caledonian Avenue to catch route 41.

@@TransportofPerth Thank you so very much, what an amazing service you provide. All the very best to you :)

[@justinmaster86]

Nice!!! 1st heritage line station with shops, like HK stations lol

[@TransportofPerth]

Well Midland and Fremantle have a small kiosk.

[@RMurray2207]

​@TransportofPerth I just saw you on abc news

@@RMurray2207 Now??

[@RMurray2207]

@TransportofPerth nah, really.

[@TransportofPerth]

I don't get why it would be on today I was interviewed for the C-Series ages ago.

[@prototypegaming9357]

Hey mark not only midland needs an upgrade I think Guildford needs an upgrade

[@oliverlovestaylorswift]

I have a feeling they will change the line to Yanchep

[@TransportofPerth]

They have already said they are going to.

[@oliverlovestaylorswift]

@@TransportofPerth yeah and they won't leave it as the joondalup line so what's the point of the petition

[@TransportofPerth]

@@oliverlovestaylorswift Don't ask me it's not my petition... But that's the only way to change things. When the government announced they will remove ATAR bonuses for hard subjects a petition was launched at it gained enough signatures for them to revert the decision.

[@dylanshimmi851]

@@TransportofPerth They haven't 'reverted' it, but have paused it. It is likely they will implement the change later in the future provided the DoE gives them approval.

[@PerthTrainAndBus]

did u end up going to School?

[@TransportofPerth]

No it was useless to go for two hours especially when no one else.qould go so they would be reluctant to teach anything to so few people anyway.
