Police investigations are continuing into a multi-vehicle accident near Bungendore, north of Canberra late last week.

 

Two cars and a truck collided on the Kings Highway, south of the intersection of the Kings highway and the Goulburn road.

 

Police say the driver of the truck stopped briefly after the crash before leaving the scene.

 

He was last seen travelling east on the Kings highway towards Braidwood- the truck described as a flat-bed possibly carrying a small crane on the back.

 

A 30 year old male had to be cut from the wreckage of one of the vehicles while a female in her 30s and a 32 year old man sustained non-life threatening injuries.

 

All were taken to Canberra hospital with the man in his 30s being airlifted from the scene.

 

Police are appealing for anyone who might have been travelling on the Kings Highway and have dashcam footage of the incident, to contact them.

Even though there have been no public nominations received by council, for a second community transport service in Goulburn, the city fathers have elected to look further into the proposal.

 

A working party was being established with councillors Sam Rowland and Margaret O'Neill as council's representatives but there was no response for two members of the community to join.

 

Goulburn Mulwaree GM, Warrick Bennett says there will be comprehensive investigation into another service.

Trials of NSW Trainlink coach services from Goulburn to Sydney and Canberra have been extended until March next year.

 

State member, Wendy Tuckerman says she wants to ensure that the coach trial connecting the two capitals with Goulburn has the best chance of success.

 

She says she has been working with Regional Transport and Roads minister, Paul Toole on the matter and she is encouraging the community to support the extended trial to ensure the services have the best chance of permanency.

 

A petition has been presented to the minister to extend the trial but the state member says the services need the community's patronage.

 

She added it was a case of Use It or Lose It.
