Public Transport
As of 17 December 2007, the highway has a 5 minute frequency bus service between Southport and Burleigh Heads during the day and a half-hourly 24-hr bus service between Southport and Tweed Heads. This is operated by Surfside for Translink. Bus lanes are in place at some stages and will be consolidated into a continuous corridor in future. Light rail will commence construction in 2011, given that more than half of all public transport trips on the Gold Coast use the highway corridor.

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or transport:
“I am both a public and a private school boy myself, having always changed schools just as the class in English in the new school was taking up Silas Marner, with the result that it was the only book in the English language that I knew until I was eighteen—but, boy, did I know Silas Marner!”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
