Wellington, Hutt Valley & Porirua routes face disruption - Thursday
Some of Wellington's bus drivers will strike from tomorrow, but exactly how many are set to down tools remains unclear. The routes which will be affected are operated by Tranzurban, which has been unable to reach a collective agreement with the Tramways Union.
How can I check?
- Public transport provider Metlink is also unsure how the strike will play out, and is urging commuters to check their bus route before they travel. They can do this on the Metlink app or website, which the organisation says will be kept as up-to-date as possible throughout the strike. Alternatively call the Metlink team on 0800 801 700.
- The only Wellington City routes operated by Tranzurban are numbers 1, 7, 17, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26, and 29. The rest of Wellington City routes are operated by NZ Bus, whose drivers will not strike despite a deal not being reached there either. Full list of affected lines here.
While the strike is set down to end on November 30, union secretary Kevin O'Sullivan says that was an arbitrary date chosen only because strike notices legally required an end date.
