So it seems the current NT government is planning a major bus reform, including closing down the two bus interchanges in Darwin and one in Palmerston. from the article its not clear if they are going to build new interchanges to replace them, has anyone here been to Darwin and might be able to report on the state of those interchanges?

Apparently they are also redesigning the bus network in the northern territory, including on demand services to replace some late night services, on that I’m not sure if that would make for an improvement or not.
