Bus Services

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:30): My question is to the Premier. Where is it publicly available a list of all the bus stops being removed by his government?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (14:30): Again, this is something that the opposition fails to comprehend, and it's clear that they haven't looked at the Adelaide Metro website. It is clear that they haven't looked at the Adelaide Metro website, which clearly shows where the route changes are being undertaken.

What they are now trying to say is that, under the redesigned routes—where those routes go—they are now trying to ask a question about whether or not there are changes to any of those bus stops. All they need to do is click on adelaidemetro.com.au, head down to the frequently asked questions section—because these questions get frequently asked—and in there it says that all the stops on existing and redesigned routes are going to be maintained. So, where there are changes, those are clearly highlighted in those redesigned maps, and it provides that information to South Australians.

By somehow just going out into the media saying, 'Oh, well, they're not releasing a list, that somehow there is some information that's missing,' that's not true. That information is there. When people—

Mr Picton: Show us the list.

The SPEAKER: The member for Kaurna is on two warnings.

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: When people engage with public transport, they think about what it means for them personally, and that's why the system has been set up to provide that information on an individual basis. People are going to say, 'Well, this is where I get on here and this is what the new redesigned route looks like, and I want to see how this engages for me.' And that's how it has been set up. That's precisely the way that we know that can engage best with our customers and help them to provide us this feedback in the process.
