Keep the 27 bus

We're calling on the state government, and the Brisbane City Council, to make the 27 bus permanent. 

Kangaroo Point is one of the most densely populated areas in the city - but has been starved of good public transport to get around. 

Pensioners, workers, families with kids, and people from all walks of life are struggling to get to and from Kangaroo Point without a car. Meanwhile, our roads get busier and less safe.

Kangaroo Point is one of the most densely populated areas in the city - but has been starved of good public transport to get around. 

Pensioners, workers, families with kids, and people from all walks of life are struggling to get to and from Kangaroo Point without a car. Meanwhile, our roads get busier and less safe. 

Route 27 currently runs between Kangaroo Point and the Riverside Centre. While initially established due to the closure of the Dockside ferry terminal, this bus route is very well used by residents in Kangaroo Point. People use to 27 to get to work, appointments, shopping, and to visit family and friends.

We strongly advocate for this service to be made permanent.

We’re calling on both the state Minister for Transport, Bart Mellish, and the BCC Transport Committee Chair, Cr Ryan Murphy, to work together to keep this important service for Kangaroo Point.

Keep the 27 bus

We're calling on the State Government, and the Brisbane City Council, to make the 27 bus permanent. 

Kangaroo Point residents and the KP Transport Action Group are very worried about the 27 Bus service being soon withdrawn.

Kangaroo Point is one of the most densely populated areas in the city - but has been starved of good public transport. This adversely impacts employees, students, seniors, DVA pensioners, the less abled, families with kids, and people from all walks of life. 

Route 27 runs from Kangaroo Point to the Riverside Centre. It ends in April when Dockside ferry stop reopens. However, the Kittycat ferries are smaller, take fewer people, have a lot fewer seats, carry many tourists, have poor ventilation and are not air conditioned. Frequently, people are unable to get onboard.

The 27 Bus route is reliable and very well used by Kangaroo Point residents. People use it to get to work, business meetings, medical appointments, shopping, and to visit family and friends.

We strongly advocate this service be made permanent.

We ask the State Minister for Transport, Bart Mellish, and the BCC Transport Committee Chair, Cr Ryan Murphy, to work to keep this important service for Kangaroo Point.
