Question:
> Any one know of a good bus service from Brisbane direct across > Queensland to Alice or Uluru?
It is not possible to drive direct across Queensland (Brisbane- Alice/Uluru) by any form of road transport (no roads!). The only way from Brisbane to Alice is via Adelaide (or closeby) in the south or via Cloncurry & Tennant creek in the north. Either way, it is a LONG trip. If you are short of time, it would be better to fly from Brisbane to the Centre.
