Scheduled stops for the ‘Mackay Explorer’ include the Visitor Information Centre, Mackay Regional Botanic Gardens, bus stops along Nebo Road, Artspace Mackay, the City Centre Sunday Markets, Mackay Marina, and the fish markets in River Street. People can also board the ‘Mackay Explorer’ between scheduled stops by finding a place along the route where the bus can stop safely and signalling to the driver as the bus approaches.
