New bus routes launched this week will give local commuters, from Campbelltown to Narellan and Liverpool, a much needed public transport service.

The new routes from Liverpool (825 and 860), and Campbelltown (845 and the enhanced 840), will connect these South West Sydney residents with train stations, shops, hospitals, jobs and the new Western Sydney International Airport at Badgerys Creek.

These services will run every 30 minutes from 5am to 10pm, seven days a week.

Local state MPs have welcomed the start of the new bus services in their electorates.

“As our region continues to grow, it is so important that we have appropriate and effective public transport options and infrastructure,’’ says Member for Campbelltown Greg Warren.

“The Minns Labor Government is delivering just that for my community in Campbelltown, and across Western Sydney more broadly.”

The member for Leppington, Nathan Hagarty,  said these new bus routes are a “positive step forward for our growing communities across Leppington and South Western Sydney’’.

“They’ll make it easier for people to get to work, school, healthcare and the new Western Sydney International Airport,’’ he said.

“As our area continues to grow, we need to keep investing in the public transport our community needs and relies on.”

Member for Liverpool Charishma Kaliyanda said that for more than a decade Western Sydney was left behind when it came to public transport.

“The Minns Labor Government is changing that by delivering the permanent bus routes and services that Liverpool’s growing community has been calling for,’’ Ms Kaliyanda said.

“Whether it’s getting to work, school, Liverpool Hospital or the new Western Sydney International Airport, these new bus routes will make every day travel easier for local families and help keep our growing community connected.’’
