David HODGETT (Croydon) (19:08): (1563) My adjournment today is for the Minister for Public and Active Transport, and the action I seek is for the minister to review the bus service routes departing near Yarra Road Primary School in Croydon North and assess their service coverage and route suitability and accessibility to surrounding secondary schools. A recent discussion with the principal of Yarra Road Primary School identified an issue of concern by families of the school community when selecting a secondary school. They identified a lack of bus services available for students to access Melba College and Mooroolbark College when departing near Yarra Road Primary School. What would normally be a 10-minute drive by car can take upwards of 45 minutes or even over an hour for some periods of the day, meaning in some scenarios it would be faster for students to actually walk. Historically families sent students to Norwood Secondary College, which was easily accessible via bus services. However, recent school zoning changes mean this is no longer an option. Rising cost-of-living pressures are forcing many families to work longer hours, making it increasingly important that children can attend secondary school independently via public transport. Again, the action I am seeking is for the minister to review the bus service routes departing near Yarra Road Primary School in Croydon North and assess their service coverage and route suitability and accessibility to surrounding secondary schools.
