That’s a Wrap! 2025 BusWA AGM,  BusWA BCI Bus Show, Sponsors Appreciation supported by Yutong Bus Centre WA

Thank you to everyone for making our 2025 BusWA AGM and BusWA BCI Bus Show which was a huge success. To all our suppliers, without you this is not possible. The new format seemed to work very well so it will continue in the future.

A very successful APTIA Breakfast supported by Team Super was held at Epicurean on Thursday morning. Thank you to Kirsten Jongsma for a very informative session, interacting with our larger bus contractors on Industrial Relations issues.

Thursday evening, we held our BusWA sponsors appreciation evening, supported by Yutong Bus Centre WA, at Fraser’s in Kings Park. We are very fortunate to have had over 30 partners, from all sectors supporting BusWA and 7 politicians were in attendance; we were addressed by assistant Transport minister Jessica Stojkovski. Friday saw record numbers of exhibitors and members at our annual BusWA BCI Bus Show. Thank you to all suppliers for your ongoing support, in particular major sponsors BCI.
