Canberra omnibus service under strain in Canberra
A House of Representatives statement from a ministerial aide said the Interior Department is doing all possible to ensure the omnibus service in Canberra meets needs for comfort and safety. However, conditions are abnormal, with 28 bus bases operating at reduced capacity and one bus capacity at 50. An official report noted abnormal conditions as many vehicle owners rely on the service. The department ordered extra omnibuses, not yet landed, due to defence personnel's presence in Canberra.
