I am pleased to announce the high frequency 980 bus trial operating between Caringbah Station and Lilli Pilli Point has been extended until December 2020.
This is to fully assess the patronage potential over a longer duration and determine suitable next steps.
The high frequency bus service is being trialled at Lilli Pilli Point and Caringbah Station using new look buses. Transport for NSW is using the trial to learn more about encouraging people to use public transport for the first and last segment of their journey.
Patronage trends and customer research during the initial trial have indicated positive growth, with customers shifting from private vehicle to bus due to the improved frequency and convenient connection to trains, especially in the PM peak period.
The 980 Turn Up and Go bus trial operates every 10 minutes during the AM and PM peaks along Port Hacking Road Monday to Friday, 6:05am to 8:45am to Caringbah Station (Hay Ave Shops bus stop) and 4:10pm to 8:10pm to Lilli Pilli Point.
Customers can tap on and off using their Opal card, credit and debit cards or linked smart devices.
Opal bus fares apply and customers will receive all Opal travel rewards, such as the $2 Opal transfer discount for adult fares, if they change between a train and a bus within 60 minutes from the last tap off.
I encourage that you plan your trip at www.transportnsw.info
“They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted;
They fell with their faces to the foe.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.“
I attended moving Anzac Dawn Services at Martin Place and Cronulla today (and was represented at Caringbah and Miranda).
Anzac Day isn’t about celebrating generals or wars or territorial ambitions - above all, it’s about honouring the generations of ordinary men and women who’ve served, or are serving, their country through our defence forces, including over 100,000 Australians who’ve laid down their lives doing so - and being so grateful for the freedoms we enjoy as a result. ...

“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”
The 2025 Harbour Sunset Tribute on Anzac Eve marked the 110th anniversary of the Gallipoli Campaign and 80 years this year since the end of World War II - a moving tribute to all who have lost their lives in service for our country, those who have served and those who are currently serving.
As I placed my wreath, I also thought of the thousands of Australians who would sailed from Sydney Harbour to serve our nation, many of whom paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. ... See MoreSee Less

Cost shouldn’t be a barrier to protecting yourself and your loved ones from influenza.
Under the Minns Labor Government it is.
The NSW Liberals and Nationals are urging the Minns Labor Government to bring back free flu vaccines for all NSW people amid warnings of a monster flu season.
Our former Government provided free flu vaccinations in 2022, a program cut by the Minns Labor Government.
Last year’s flu season was the worst on record.
The Government needs to step up and ensure every NSW resident can access a free flu, which is what we’d do.
It’s false economy not to do so. In a cost-of-living crisis, providing free flu vaccines will result in fewer hospital visits, less pressure on emergency departments, fewer sick days and more lives saved. ... See MoreSee Less

I am deeply saddened, along with millions of Australians and with people across the world, by the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis.
Pope Francis was a beacon of humility, compassion and unwavering faith. His life was devoted to serving others, offering hope to the marginalised, and reminding the world of the power of mercy, forgiveness and love.
As the first Pope from the Jesuit order and the first from the Americas, he brought fresh leadership to the Church and reached people far beyond its walls. His example of simplicity and service will continue to inspire generations to come.
At this time of mourning, I offer my condolences to Australians of Catholic faith and all those who feel his loss so deeply. We give thanks for his extraordinary life of service and pray that he now rests in the eternal peace of Christ. ... See MoreSee Less

My deepest condolences to the catholic across the world
Am not a Catholic but really respected & loved him. Sympathy to all Catholics.
The @worlds_biggest_paddleout on 15 March at Cronulla Beach didn’t just set a new world record - 1027 - for participants in a single paddle out - it also raised $54,000 for youth mental health programs - @findyafeet and @onewaveisallittakes .
Great work @blakeyjohnston and @laurenjohnston123 ! ... See MoreSee Less

Congratulations on this magnificent effort
Congratulations great cause
Massive effort and well done Blakey Johnston and your team. Keep up the great work helping others .
Please take the initiative and develop a clear infrastructure vision for Sydney. The current government has no transport plans and is considering rezoning the land above Central Station back to rail use. Mark Speakman, take control by presenting a bold plan to build and win the next election.
