In today's modern world, it's so easy to put on those headphones, sit at the bus stop, and get lost in your phone while waiting for the bus.

Busways is rolling out a new signal the driver campaign in conjunction with Transport for NSW and will be reminding students and all passengers the importance of signalling at the bus stop.

It's important to signal the bus driver because:
•    it helps the bus driver know that you wish to catch their bus
•    it supports a timely departure
•    it helps avoid missing your bus

Please remind your children who catch the bus to look up from their phone if they have one and keep an eye out to signal the driver by raising their hand so the driver knows your child would like to jump on board.
