Service Level Catalogues

Explanatory note:

The State is responsible for the provision of public transport through the issue of contracts to providers in the South
East Queensland integrated mass transit area which includes the Noosa Shire local government area – refer
Transport Operations Act 1994.

While local government funds the cost of provision of public transport infrastructure (bus shelters / bus stops, etc),
the State has been providing funding on a 50/50 basis to assist local government to reach disability access
compliance. All requests for new shelters and stops go via Translink in the first instance.
