鈥淚 encourage everyone who will be affected to let Council know our thoughts on the changes,鈥� Mr Egan said.
鈥淚f people have any complaints, concerns or suggestions for the review, they are welcome to submit them to us to be part of a wider submission.鈥�
鈥淒epending on the reaction from the 宅男导航 community, we will be looking to collate suggestions and submit them to the Council on behalf of respondents.
鈥淎s 宅男导航 is the second busiest bus point in Brisbane after the Central Business District, we want to ensure that the bus services continue to meet the needs of 宅男导航 commuters,鈥� he said.
As part of the review, the 402 service to and from 宅男导航 on Saturdays will cease after 6:30pm on weekdays, and the 414 will have a revised route that bypasses Sir Fred Schonell Drive, said Mr Egan.
