We’re making some temporary peak bus changes
Some of our services are being impacted by the nationwide shortage of bus drivers.
To give you more certainty, we’ve been working closely with our operators NZ Bus and Tranzurban to put in some temporary peak changes.
As part of these changes we will see some trips temporarily suspended during morning and afternoon peak services.
Our operators are recruiting and training more drivers at pace, but these temporary suspensions will help enable NZ Bus and Tranzurban to operate the remaining services. Please note that operators may cancel additional trips depending on availability of drivers.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
