The BBC supports a plan that will see buses stop in the left-hand lane of Mitchell St.
THE Bendigo Business Council has released a position statement on the location of the city’s transport interchange and the routing of buses in the Bendigo CBD.
Executive officer Kevin de Vries said the council supported the City of Greater Bendigo council's position.
“The Bendigo Business Council believes the best location for a transport interchange is at the railway station, and that the best route for buses to take is along Mitchell Street, with bus stops located adjacent to Hargreaves Mall," he said.
That route would see the buses stop in what is now the left traffic lane, further clogging one of Bendigo's busiest streets.
“The City of Greater Bendigo and the Victorian Department of Transport have been discussing the location and impact of bus stops in the Bendigo CBD for nearly two years," he said.
