Cooroy & Surrounds
 Highest number of passengers carried and individuals using the service;
 Regularly carries five individuals from the same suburb (Lake Macdonald) to Cooroy;
 Service with the highest kilometres travelled;
 Utilised every Thursday for the past six months;
 Service carries passengers who used the Lake Macdonald- Cooroy Flexilink service before it
   was discontinued in April 2014.

Noosa & Eastern Beaches
 Highest number of booked runs;
 Regularly carries two individuals from the same suburb (Peregian Beach) to Lanyana Way,
   Noosa Heads;
 Utilised every Wednesday for the past six months.

Tewantin & Cooroibah
 Service with the lowest kilometres travelled;
 Has never been used by any Cooroibah residents;
 Never carried more than one individual per run;
 Utilised every Wednesday, bar two days, in the past six months.

Pomona & Cooran
 Utilised once in the past six months;
 Has never carried any Cooran residents.

Noosaville
 No bookings in the past six months;
 It has recently been identified that one Tewantin resident has been booking the Noosaville
   (Tuesday) service instead of the Tewantin service (Wednesday). Investigations have
   revealed that Sunshine Coast Council permitted this because both the Tewantin and
   Noosaville services go to the same locations. The individual has been advised that they must
   utilise the Tewantin service on a Wednesday. For the purposes of this report the data has
   been included in the Tewantin service.
