POSTPONED: Rally outside Brookvale Bus Depot
2020-03-21 11:00 - 12:00 | Brookvale Bus Depot, 630-636 Pittwater Road, Brookvale
Update: due to the current health situation, we’ve had to postpone the Brookvale rally against bus privatisation which was planned for this weekend. Community and worker safety is always our priority. A huge thank you to all the supporters who had planned to come along. Make sure you’re signed up to www.ourtransport.org.au so we can keep you updated on future actions (which will likely be online in the immediate future at least), and in the meantime stay safe and look out for each other.
Gladys Berejiklian and the Liberals promised no more privatisation during the election.
On the 25th of October the Berejiklian Government broke that promise by announcing their plan to privatise all Sydney buses.
A private company will need to turn a profit by squeezing money out of bus services. Every dollar they save will be at your expense, instead of being put back into better services.
This means:
? Bus routes will be cut
? More services will be late
? Travel times will increase
? Safety will be compromised
? Traffic congestion will get worse
It’s time to fight back. Join us on Saturday 21 March at 11:00am outside Brookvale Bus Depot on Pittwater Road, Brookvale.

On 23rd February the RTBU is hosting a special Family Fun Day for all our Tram and Bus members.

The Family Fun Day will be completely free, with rides, food stalls, live music, face painting and plenty of activities for the whole family to enjoy.
We’ll even be inviting some of our politicians and inviting them to take the pledge to protect our public transport.
We’d love to see all our members there. To RSVP, simply fill out the form with your name, depot, and contact details.
What to bring: sunscreen, hat and water bottle
