====================

Buses are better than trams.  Buses can get around obstacles and broken vehicles and the like.  That is if not in Brisbane ...

[#Metro]

About time emergency disruption procedures were put in place. Why not divert buses over the CC ?

[ozbob]

The public transport network (and the road network) is fragile to the extreme, matters little the mode.

Thanks for your patience!  You bet ... lol

A Logan City Bus broke down apparently due to the air gauge being "very low". Mechanic arrived with the tow truck and replacement bus arrived a short time later. Buses were queued up in William Street to get onto the Victoria Bridge.

Does anyone really know what the bus rollingstock realibility/running realibility is for BT or overall rather than that bullcrap Translink keeps producing? I've been going through to and from West End these past couple weeks and I've seen a large amount of the Volvo B1s doing the 330/333/335/340/345 duties, observed a 3XX (maybe a 301) getting preped for towing on Adelaide Street last night paired up with todays 199 breaking down and services constantly running up to 5+ minutes late (the 335 last week was 15 minutes down on its schedulled time at 11ish - 3 times it was 8-15 mins late at PCH compared to the 325 running before/about 3 mins down). I know the railway isn't perfect but damn there is some serious delays starting to creep into the bus network.
