POLL: Next most pressing BUZifications #3

[somebody]

I voted for 175.

However I'd like to see a BUZification of a new Paddington to Woolloongabba 386/374. Paddington is sufficiently inner urban enough to warrant more than the 385.

I can't believe that I left off the 375!  Added.

Was wondering about that Simon.... can I revote? Also I only spent one vote, yet it seems closed to me now? I'm not experienced with polls on the forum...

You should be able to remove your vote and recast it.

Maybe it is my browser or maybe I'm blind but I can't see the option.... altho I'm pretty sure I've done it once before on a different thread!

This is what it looks like for me...

Big rush for Centenary votes today.

[Gazza]

Its a pretty big area not serviced by one. About equivalent in size to Parkinson/Algester.

175 would be my 3rd choice after Centenary and Bulimba....Its the kind of route I like. Simple and direct.

Thanks Bob, the little "remove vote" link was there and I re-cast my vote.

I voted for 175 (again) and 375. I also believe Bulimba is in dire need and I'd be happy with any of these three.

I should note however, I voted for the 375 imperfectly as I've previously highlighted the good one seat nature through to the valley and desired changes to the wasteful peak shuttle 374 (of course I realise the network shouldn't be full of one seaters, however I think this is a reasonable one). Paddo would also be a shorter route and hit the highly activated land uses without all day long going from MacGregor Tce to the turnaround in Carwoola St in Bardon. Altho that is closer to where I live it is lowly patronised given the demographic and I think the length would get A LOT more bang for buck by continuing from King George Square to Woolloongabba via Cultural Centre, South Bank and Mater Hill.

I think the Stafford side of the 375 route is also highly patronised, however I'm not sure if you'd BUZ it as is, or do something with the 376 instead.

The Stafford Rd section particularly has quite a bit of medium to high intensity development along the corridor and could easily support a BUZ. Whether it should stay as is through Gordon Park and join the busway at Lutwyche or continue to the end of Stafford Rd and join the busway at Kedron Brook is another question.

I think stay as it is beyond RBH.

It will be one of the only all stops local services won't it? not on the busway that is...

I thought it was using the busway at least as far as the Federation St overpass.

But I think no further... still to be all confirmed of course mid year when the thing opens

There was/is (Not sure if its still happening) a portal planned for Lamington Av, Lutwyche after Lutwyche station. If it was to use the busway beyond Federation St, this would be where it would join the regular road network.

In practice, all buses on Gympie Road will be using the secton of "busway" from Truro Street inbound to Federation Street and it will only be a question of which bus stops are serviced. 

I wouldn't be surprised if the 375 went through the Lutwyche Station.  (However, my prediction is we will end up with some silly split system a little bit like the LCT, with the 376 going via the station and the 375 going via the surface.)

^ LCT = Lane Cove Tunnel?  Most of the irregularities with that have been sorted regarding Hillsbus, at least in peak.

Eastern Busway vs OC Road yellow stops is closer to what I meant, but the LCT arrangement would be physically closer to what Lutwyche will probably end up with.
