Re: Rugby clash a Test match for transport

["Bob Taylor" <taylorb@acay.com.au>]

The Regular Route buses from Parramatta Route 655 via Rosehill Parramatta Rd
or m4. Route 555 Victoria Rd.
are always ignored by the OCA. However they were very busy.
Particularly 655 from Rosehill were the race meeting was on a lot of people
went from there to the football.
The 655 also serves the Homebush ferry wharf with the STA and these buses
were also well loaded.
Parramatta Buses leave from Park St near Homebush Station.
