A message from Peter Marshall - Vice President (Administration)
******************************
Over the first two weeks of semester, students and staff have experienced
significant delays in the morning at the Huntingdale Station waiting for
buses at the station to take them to the Clayton campus. The University
has contacted the bus companies and the Department of Transport to discuss
the issue and requested they urgently look at improving the bus services
so that they can better meet the peak period demands.
As an interim measure, the University will also be providing a free
shuttle bus service from the station to campus from 7.45am to 9.45am
(Monday to Thursday). This service is intended to take the overflow of
passengers that cannot get on the bus services 630 and 900. The
University will be closely monitoring the situation over the next few
weeks to make sure students and staff can get to campus in time for
lectures and work.
Monash is committed to working with the State Government to improve the
sustainable transport options for our campuses and it is hoped that staff
and students will continue to support public transport as an effective and
sustainable transport method to campus.
