For anyone who might be keen on trying a cycling commute from the
West side of the Yarra to Monash Campuses.

The Westgate Punt, running under the bridge and carrying cyclits,
will be running a commuter service from Monday 9 February to Friday
13 February, to guage the possibility of bringing the commuter
service back on a regular basis.

While the weekend and public holiday service has run for many years -
and continues to run - the commuter service has been spasmodic since
the commuter trial was concluded in June 2006. The commuter service
then ran as a special service on Ride To Work Day in October of 2006,
2007 and 2008, attracting very high levels of patronage .

Over the past few weeks the punt skipper has endeavoured to run the
commuter service on Fridays and Mondays, on either side of the
weekend service. For further details, contact Alex, the Westgate Punt
skipper on 0419 999 458.
