Buses need to run more often & throughout the weekend in Tasmania before most people will start to use them regularly. The services are too restricted in their time-slots to be of any real choice with public transport. I live in Cambridge & transport from 16 kms to Hobart is poor at best. I lived in Lauderdale & the service their was far better yet 8 kms further. Weekends, well there is no weekends because the bus services on weekends are a joke & almost non-existent. The Gov't in Tas needs to run these services reliably & consistently.

ACT bus service is pathetic - but it's a factor of (a) offering very uncompetitive salaries in a market where there are alresdy skill shortages, and (b) we have a small population base tfrom which to draw revenue, and it is very spread out. The ACT government should suck up the expense and build a light rail system.
