Ah Rowville, the PTV deadzone of the SE.

Hey! Its not a deadzone per say. The state government just assumed it was a suburb of bus enthusiasts.

@TinyBreak @StudChud Many years ago I dated a girl who lived in Rowville, and I can confirm there's plenty to do there.

You can choose whether you want to go to the Coles or the Kmart at Stud Park Shopping Centre. Maybe both?

Or you can wait and wait in a traffic jam on Stud Road.
Or wait and wait in a traffic jam on Wellington Road.
Or wait and wait in a traffic jam on Kelletts Road.
Or wait and wait for the bus to Knox and Ringwood.
Or wait and wait for the bus to Dandenong.
Or wait and wait for the bus to Glen Waverley.
Or wait and wait for the bus to Boronia.
Or wait and wait for the bus to Caulfield.
