Signal Style
Call to arms asks customers to show us your ‘signal style’!
Our bus drivers meet hundreds of customers every day and so we’ve launched a ‘call to arms’ for you to step forward at the bus zone and show us your signal style.
Signalling the bus driver strongly helps them know you want to catch their bus. This is particularly helpful when you are waiting at a stop where multiple buses arrive on different routes.
Whether you’re like Sarah who gets in extra stretches on her daily commute to the gym, or Bec who busts out a Stayin’ Alive dance move to flag the bus driver, or Barbara and Pat on their girls’ day out - signalling the driver helps them see you.
Looking up from your mobile phone, keeping an eye out for your bus and signalling the driver helps you get noticed and avoid accidentally getting missed.
We know there’s an urge to scroll through your social newsfeeds or check your personal emails while you are waiting at the bus stop, but you could risk missing your bus.
Adelaide, next time you’re catching the bus, why not show us your signal style!
