Sydney’s Northern Beaches council has banned bikini-clad and shirtless passengers from riding its free community bus service after receiving feedback from passengers.
The Hop, Skip and Jump is a daily 30-seat shuttle bus that services the coastal suburbs of Manly, Fairlight and Balgowlah and is frequented by beachgoers.
On Friday morning, Seven’s Sunrise program aired a segment showing a sign erected in Manly that read: “Hop, Skip and Jump Bus stop here. Please dress appropriately. Clothing must be worn over swimwear.”
