Question

I refer to the Metricup to Margaret River school bus service, and I ask:

(a) is this service fully subscribed;
(b) is there a waiting list for families to get access to this bus and, if so, how many students are on the waiting list;
(c) what is the capacity of the bus providing this service; and
(d) what is the average number of students using this service daily?
Answered on 31 October 2017

    1. Yes
    2. Yes, there is a waitlist of 12 complimentary students.
    3. 57 adult seats
    4. This service has 110 students registered users due to a bus transfer at Metricup, and major stops at Cowaramup and Margaret River. Based on the movement of these students and absenteeism, usage is approximately 50 students per day.
