Bus Time Tables 102, 102X, 104 & 134 Are Available Again At Jervis Bay Tourist Information - Shop Between The Flags, Sanctuary Point

For a small time time table were rumming out at Shop Between The Flags, our Jervis Bay Tourist Information Centre. We thank both bus operators: Nowra Coaches and Shoal Bus for their co-operation in making sure that there is ample time tables

For a time, I believe Chris advised people were grabbing them like 'hot cakes'. So, now if you have your bus time table, you may want to get one for a neighbour, friend or family member that needs that information to catcj local buses around the area.

Bay & Basin Buses Quick Trip 4 - Basin View to HomeCo. Vincentia

So, here we are again with more virtual Quick Trips on our local buses around the Bay & Basin buses. I understand bus drivers are anxiously waiting to see these trips and understand the work put into this project to get more people catching buses around our area. It is really a psychological change that is required, to actually leave your expensive car at home and use the public transport buses to your advantage.

This video is the Quick Trip number 4 - Basin View to HomeCo. Vincentia - quite an enjoyable trip, as far as I feel. We seem to have the luxury of cars to take us around for the majority of our community but I feel if people would like to try our buses, they will understand we have a very cheap form of public transport to get to places.

So, please spend quality time watching the full video, so you see how easy it is to use our local buses. All feedback will be appreciated

*102 Scenic Bus from Nowra Coaches is my description of this bus service, signifying it is a slower bus service from Basin View to the Nowra/Bomaderry, compared to the 102X (Express from St Georges basin to Woollamia and the same as the 102 Nowra Coaches from Wollamia to Nowra/Bomaderry).

If you missed the first two videos click on the link for Quick 2 and you will be able to check them.

Bay & Basin Buses - Quick Trip 2 - Vincentia HomeCo. To Huskisson

If you have watched the first video of The Bay & Basin Buses, here is the second one which I also hope you find intriguing and interesting. These trips are one-way journeys, so you must imagine the return journeys as the reverse of that trip you are watching. This trip is from Vincentia HomeCo. to Huskisson.

Remember these trips encourage you as a community to catch local buses to get to important local areas, for yourself.

 All bus drivers have provided their approval to film these trips, to help people in our community understand where our buses can take you.

Bay & Basin Local Buses Taking You To Local Businesses & Main Hubs 'Quick Trips/Scenic Trips' - Quick Trip 1

About 2 months or so, I wanted to share my ideas on how why and where to catch our local buses.  I can answer these with visual effects, as I will be doing here.

Our local community is generally dependent on private transport with club buses and community buses as well as taxis around the area.

 Yet, I feel we all look at catching our local buses differently for reasons. I think, if I were to catch a bus, let me catch to Nowra (for shopping or appointments) or Bomaderry (to reach a connecting train). If we were to think a bit deeper, the local buses we have in the Bay & Basin are even as good as catching the buses locally and reaching your destinations locally within the Bay & Basin.

After recently travelling overseas and catching buses our costs of travelling on our local buses, are considerably lower and very compatible.

So, if we normally travel from example Basin View to Vincentia HomeCo by private car - how much is the cost of driving your car there. The rising cost of fuel is becoming expensive, registration, third party/comprehensive motor insurance, inclusive of regular maintenance & servicing. 

So, for a small cost of $2.50 Pensioner/Senior travel, I could travel all around the Nowra Bus Network. To make it easy where our buses start and let us down, I have produced a few videos to show what great bus services we have around the Bay & Basin area. Yes, the amount bus services can be increased and improved, but in time, for that to happen, we need to increase the local patronage of these services. To do that these videos are here to help each and every one of you decide to catch buses by yourself, with friends and even as a family.

Then the first video on these trips is here. Bay & Basin: 'Quick Trip 1' 102X Bus From Sanctuary Point Village to Homeco, Vicentia.

Click here for Quick Trip 1 - Sanctuary Point Village to HomeCo, Vincentia

This is one of many bus 'Quick Trips' you can take within our area, to get to places where you can get to work, do your basic shopping, get fit and meet families or friends for a social meeting. This bus service was less than 7 minutes with only one stop @ Erowal Bay.

My message to you all, a return trip is worth it. You're not paying for petrol. You're not driving. You're sitting in comfortable seats and could meet a group of friends and have a quick chat. You can organise your return trip on the same 102X (Express)* Bus service, within your own time back from Vincentia HomeCo. or return on the Scenic 102 (Scenic)* which will take you through Old Erowal Bay and parts of Sanctuary Point villages. Sanctuary Point Village Shopping Centre is the place to go as it provides all the necessities of essential goods and services, ( without going too far) and more. It offers the following shops: bakeries, coffee & beverage outlets, Australian Post, Chemist, Florists, and Real Estate Agents, bike shop, IGA, Jervis Bay Tourist Information and Shop, podiatrist, a couple of hair salons (why would you go elsewhere?), accountancy company, fish and chips/hamburgers, Indian and Chinese food as well as ample hot pizzas and many other shops for you to cater you needs. The Bay & Basin Library is at your service as well. Make sure you take the walk along "The Basin Walk' and enjoy Paradise Beach Reserve and P.alm Beach.

Homeco, Vicentia Village is a shopping Centre that offers major stores: Woolworths, Aldi, Simply Pharmacy, and Bakers Delight and complements itself with 2 coffee shops, a Medical Centre, Optometrists and other variety of wonderful shops. There is a walking track that you can take to reach Vicentia Shopping Village and the beaches along Jervis Bay. Most importantly, you can check on real-time applications like Anytrip.com, Tripview, Google Bus and Mooveit applications, current bus routes and bus services. My favourite one is Anytrip.com Contact Nowra Coaches for further details : Click here for Nowra Coachesa Timetable details Ph: 02 4423 5244 Email: admin@premierms.com.au You may obtain further timetable information from: Jervis Bay Tourist Information 'Shop Between The Flags', Shop 1/2-18 Sanctuary Point Road, Sanctuary Point, during business hours. Ph: (02) 4443 0085 *This is my understanding of what type of services is in our area.I envisage once you watch the entire video, you may start catching buses around the area, as you understand how simple it is. This is a positive outcome for all.

Promotion of Bay & Basin Bus Time Tables @ Jervis Bay Tourist Information - Sanctuary Point Community Pride Inc.

It is great to get support from both The Sanctuary Point Community Pride Inc, promotion of  Bay & Basin Bus Timetables at 'Shop Bwteeen The Flags', Sanctuary Point and also I have seen the Chair of the Community Champions with all relevant timetables in his hand. If community leaders are interested, then comes the backing of the community, so we may then see slight increases in patronage when the awareness of services is available to all.

At the moment, the bus timetables 102/102X & 104 have run out, temporarily. Nowra Coaches/Premier Bus Services are in the process of providing more timetables to our general community soon. I never expected this small campaign to have bus timetables run out so quickly. Here is the post from the Sanctuary Point Community Pride Inc.:
