Spotted this lovely TransLink notice at one of the very few bus stops in Palmwoods township (population approx. 7000 in 2010)
You gotta love how they spell Crescent.

The big question is, do I catch bus 639 at 10:39am or bus 639 at 2:30pm?
hmmm.

*639

The railway station/railbus stop is 1.2km from the street (according to Google Maps).  May be some good exercise if you're fit/young (20 min walk), not the case for the elderly in the area unfortunately.

Looks like we have a contender for beating the 314 frequency around Sandgate/Shorncliffe :P

Route 529:  3 services per Weekday (2 short runnings), once on the weekend.

On a related note I have started a topic in the Bus Routes Reviewed section.  It is a proposal I've made for a Route 638 service (involves modifications to existing routes like removing Woombye from the 610 and Palmwoods from the 638).
