New clean-up kits are now available for taxis and other point to point transport service providers in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, to help keep drivers and passengers safe during COVID-19.<\/p>\n
Minister for Transport and Roads Andrew Constance says the NSW Government continues to support the point to point transport industry by providing free COVID clean-up kits for operators, on top of the eight vehicle sanitisation stations already rolled out across parts of the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand the important role point to point transport services provide to communities, which is why we\u2019re providing the reassurance both drivers and passengers need to continue using these services,\u201d said Constance.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve already rolled out eight vehicle sanitisation stations across the state, which not only slow the potential spread of COVID-19, but also help keep the local economy ticking by employing more than 85 people.\u201d<\/p>\n
The new kits can be collected from the eight vehicle sanitisation stations, as well as online.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is about ensuring people who rely on point to point transport in the regions can feel confident continuing to use these services during COVID,\u201d said Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole. \u201cWe\u2019ve made it convenient for drivers to collect these kits while their vehicles are sanitised in regional areas like Dubbo, Albury, Tamworth and Central Coast. Already we\u2019ve seen more than 7,000 vehicles use the stations, so we know it\u2019s making a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n
