Over 400 Metres To Reach Bus Stop - Result Example of Trip Planner

A local Whalan lady is hoping to  become employed at a company based at Arndell Park (near Blacktown). The problem she may face is not much early transport Monday to Friday, enabling her to start at 5.30am. Via  the 131500 Trip Planner - we have discovered she has more than 400 meters to walk to the nearest bus stop on the way to work: Follow the Trip Planner : time placed was  reach before 5.30am Arndell Park. The second Option gets her to work almost 12 hours or more later. This just doesn't seem fair:
