🚐 Transport Operations & Fleet Update
Since the beginning of the new financial year, Transport has been busy with early morning pick-ups and drop-offs for our Outings clients. We’ve also been coordinating group trips to various destinations to help bridge the gap between the 10am and 2pm period — all while continuing to support our other transport clients under NDIS, Contract, SSI, and General Transport. This ensures every booking is managed efficiently and no one is left behind.
This has truly been a team effort — from those working behind the scenes to our drivers on the road. LINK would not be where it is today without your ongoing support and willingness to step up when needed. Thank you for your continued dedication and care. Together, we’re helping people attend important appointments, maintain social connections, and avoid isolation at home.
As the end of the year approaches, please email any planned Christmas and New Year leave to opstransport@lct.org.au so we can update the Transport Roster accordingly.
The end of another year is upon us again, therefore n preparation for the upcoming Christmas and New Year holiday period, could you kindly email through any planned leave for this holiday period through opstransport@lct.org.au to ensure we update the Transport Roster accordingly.
