"Do you live in Brimbank, Maribyrnong, Hobsons Bay, Niddrie, or Moonee Valley? Are you tired of waiting for the bus? Are you tired of sitting in traffic for hours? Do you think that buses are an essential service that EVERYONE in our community deserves access to?

Come along to a local Better Buses meetup to learn more about our campaign, and share your stories of the broken bus network.

This meeting will be a chance to connect with likeminded locals who are sick of the broken bus network, and begin brainstorming ideas to do something about it!

Hear from Sustainable Cities collective members about what the Better Buses campaign has been working on to achieve transformational bus reform. Then, we want to hear your stories of the broken bus network, and how we can work together as a community to win better buses this election."

Mobilise! Resist! Transform!
