New Bus Service for Wycheproof and Lalbert

The Southern Mallee Transport Connections Partnership (SMTCP) has formed a partnership with the Department of Transport, and the Swan Hill Bus Lines in order to develop a new bus service to Swan Hill.  

The Department of Transport has funded a trial bus service between Wycheproof / Lalbert and Swan Hill, so that people can connect with health care, and specialist shops and services that are not available in their own community. 

The bus service is provided every Thursday, and is open to the whole community.

The Swan Hill Bus Lines provides the new trial service with their 21 seater bus, and have kindly subsidized the fare, so that everyone can travel at the standard concession rate.  

Mr Peter Walsh MP (Member for Swan Hill) officially launched the new bus service on the 9th of July, 2009 and he urged everyone to use the new service whenever they can, in order to ensure that it continues well into the future.

Since then, the service has proven to be overwhelmingly successful, with many people using the service to travel into Swan Hill, and the Southern Mallee Transport Connections Partnership would like to thank all of the Wycheproof community for supporting the service.

The Wycheproof to Swan Hill Trial Bus Service has recently undergone a formal evaluation by the Department of Transport, and the Southern Mallee Transport Connections Partnership and the Wycheproof community are eagerly awaiting the outcome. 

In the meantime, the bus continues to provide weekly transport to Swan Hill every Thursday, providing a vital link for all ages.
