Community Transport Services

Transporting our community

We all know that mobility helps maintain connection, and we also know how important it is for all residents of the City of Canada Bay Council area to have easy and accessible transport.

We operate our Bayrider Service every Wednesday and Thursday. This door-to-door community shuttle bus service, funded by CCBC, helps people stay active and independent in the community. It is especially helpful for people who have difficulty using private or public transport.

We are pleased to now also offer Tuesday Transport, a new service funded by the NSW Government under the Community Benefits Payment Scheme. This service exists to keep you connected and active in your community. 

Tuesday Transport can also help you travel to neighbouring suburbs for visits, classes, shopping and appointments.  

Call the office to book any of our transport services – 9719 8102.
