Major crash investigators were on the scene from 9pm.

Images from the scene show emergency services holding up green tarps next to the bus.

Grenfell St in the city was closed for some time but has since reopened.

Witnesses on the bus, brothers Teejay and Matthew Size, told The Advertiser that it looked like the woman had been crossing the road and didn’t see the bus coming.
