It acts as a bus route that transports student to Callington, Nairne, Mount Barker and Murray Bridge.As it stand Bremer Valley Road is councils only Rural Link Road that does not meet the basic Levels of Service as detailed above. In its current form Bremer Valley Road is unsealed with a varying width ranging from 8.5m to 9.5m and over the last 5 years has required significant maintenance resulting in nearly 400 man and plant hours allocated to Patrol Grading. This equates to an annual plant and labour allocation of 80 hours (2 weeks) and a maintenance bill of nearly $15,000 per annum.
