Proposed Bus Shelter - High Street Oatlands Invite to Provide Comment and Feedback
Posted Friday, 11 January 2019, 9.00am
The Southern Midlands Council has been requested to erect a Bus Shelter in High Street, Oatlands. It is proposed that the Shelter be located in the vicinity of the present Bus Stop at the front of the Oatlands District High School (i.e. adjacent to the netball court).
Whilst the provision of bus shelters is generally not a local government responsibility, past requests to the bus service organisations to provide such infrastructure, or alternatively, to contribute to bus shelters, has proven to be unsuccessful.
