The Minns Labor Government is increasing transport options for isolated communities and rolling out a new weekly bus service to run between Broken Hill and Mildura.
With thanks to funding from the government, CDC Broken Hill will deliver the trial service from 18 November.
The trial will operate each Monday and offer improved access to health, shopping and entertainment options not available in smaller towns.
The new service will depart Broken Hill Visitor Centre at 6.30am and stop for pick-ups and drop-offs at Menindee and Pooncarie before arriving at Mildura Central Shopping Centre at 10.42am and then Mildura Railway Station at 10.54am.
The return service will leave Mildura Railway Station at 3.15pm and Mildura Central at 3.30pm before again stopping at Pooncarie and Menindee before arriving in Broken Hill at 7.39pm.
The service will not take bookings, passengers will be able to just turn up and travel. The cost will vary depending on the passenger's point of origin and destination, as well as any concession card holders.
