Your Socialist Alliance Candidates for Tasmania will be participating in the Bus It Challenge and for 48 hours, during February 1 – 7 2010 we will use only public transport to travel to all our appointments and meetings.
Yours in Solidarity

The Bus It Challenge reminds politicians, candidates and prominent Tasmanians what it is like to be staking your livelihood on the reliability of public transport in the hope to spark debate and action towards better outcomes. By committing to use nothing but public transport for up to 48 hours, politicians and candidates will be able to gain a real understanding of our public transport system, the challenges and also a chance to listen to the everyday conversations that take place. The Bus It Challenge will take place from February 1-7 2010. While participants take part in the challenge - they'll have the opportunity to record their experiences online and take part in solution based conversations about how do we head towards better outcomes for Tasmanians who wish to use public transport.
