The destos on Canberra’s new LRVs used to have “ALG”/”GGN” to the right of the destination name – not very clear for passengers and not in line with established route naming. @PT_CBR and others asked about getting it changed to the actual route name – R1. Now in effect! ❤️
Good work from our friends at @StreetsCanberra. We need clear and unobstructed paths to get to PT, and everywhere else!
PTCBR committee meeting today at fantastic London Circuit cafe Roy Jr.! So much 2A construction progress to take in and admire 👏 And the Melbourne and Sydney buildings are looking beautiful with that new facade paint work!
4That’s a lot better! Thanks @Transport_CBR for taking our feedback on board!
2For some reason the new battery LRVs have “GGN” or “ALG” codes on their displays, which can be confusing for passengers. Wouldn’t it be better if it just had the R1 route number like our buses do?
