The 100 bus travels from the southeastern suburb of Forest Lake into the city.

It’s not the only suburban Brisbane route that drivers say they are seeing increasing violence on.

The 110, which travels from the south-western suburb of Inala into the city also has a bad reputation, as does the 330 route, which treks through the northern suburbs.

Improving the safety on Brisbane’s buses has turned into a buck-passing contest between the LNP-led Brisbane City Council and the Labor state government.

Both point the finger at the other one over which one is responsible for improving the safety on Brisbane buses. 

The Brisbane Labor council opposition has called for someone to own the problem. 

‘The sad fact is Brisbane city council bus drivers are not safe while they are at work,’ Labor councillor Jared Cassidy said.
