785 or 781 Bus route change
The issue
Mornington/Frankston 781 784 785 Sorrento/Portsea788
- Padua Estate currently has NO close easy access to any of the 4 BUSES that commute through Mornington without a LONG & HARD WALK let alone with shopping etc
- Padua College also has many students that aren’t in the school zone & commute on these buses also & the school buses etc are able to navigate through the Estate easy enough.
- Not many of us have a car or licence, there are elderly people who can’t walk the distance to the Bus stops as well as those that are unwell and cannot walk that far either.
- If this change occurred it would help many people, it would give some their independence back to many of those that are stuck at home.
It’s healthy to get out in the sun and fresh air for the mind & body
with this very slight & ever so simple change would enable people throughout our estate to travel to the shops
Either 781 or 785 Bus to change the Route @ Oakbank Rd Mornington and travel through Padua Estate to where it Carrys on again to the normal route at Robertson Drive. This would still be the same kms travelled as current route & time.
I would propose a bus stop at Padua Dve (in front of park) & a Bus stop at the end of the Estate at or before the Bungower service Road.
The commute thru the estate would only be approximately 1.586kms
Below is an example of a possible route that could be taken with Proposed Bus Stops Flagged & Highlighted
