BayRider

Wednesday & Thursday Shuttle Bus Service

In partnership with the City of Canada Bay Council, the Wednesday and Thursday BayRider service has been extended for 2 years. Priority will be given to people not eligible to use other community transport services. A gold coin donation will be requested for each trip.

The BayRider is a door-to-door shuttle bus service operating within the City of Canada Bay. This assists residents with transport difficulties to access facilities or services in the local area. The BayRider is able to collect passengers from their home and take them to places such as:

  • Drummoyne shops
  • Five Dock shops and Five Dock Library
  • A local nursing home to visit a spouse or friend
  • Majors Bay Road shops or Concord Library
  • Concord Hospital
  • Rhodes Shopping Centre for shopping or movies
  • Local shopping areas for banks and hairdressers etc
  • DCC to attend programs.

Additionally on a Wednesday the BayRider will visit Burwood for medical appointments only. Check with us about other locations that the bus may be able to go to.
