What we don't realise is that there is a lot of backgrond technological work being done - which Transport New South Wales is looking to bring to our community. The older we are the more we don't like to accept changes,especially changes that can be dramatical and affect our lives. We discussed changed as 'Save Our Bus Services' '- changes that occured to reduced services around the community. We now need to look to the future chnages that you wouldn't expect would happen in any bus services.
A lot of the bus services in Mount Druit have been modernised to bring comforts to public transport commuters, such as great air condition for summer and heating for winter, disabled seating and seating that fold allowing parents with prams, high tech cameras keeping an eye on everyone commuter, synchronised voice talking of cautioning when leaving buses as well as GPS system that allows bus drivers to follow the route the way it should follow. On the negative - the back seating of a bus makes it a hazard when leaving the bus - as you enter the back end you step into different choices of seating - yet the roof of the bus remains the same height.
In the Modern age are the 'Transponders' and 'PTIPS' which were mentioned on the follow story we provided you will be the start of others to come:

Not to mention on (not in Mount Druitt as yet) in Sydney Metro buses trials are being made in supplying free wireless Internet. If this is successful this will be introduced on a majority of bus trips.
