Wellington bus services cancelled temporarily

From Morning Report, 6:47 am on 14 October 2022

A driver shortage has forced more than sixty Wellington bus trips to be suspended from next week to improve reliability.

Sixty-seven services during the morning and afternoon peaks are being axed temporarily.

Trips are being removed from the most frequent and least popular routes, with some services being replaced with bigger buses to keep up with demand.

Metlink's general manager Samantha Gain spoke to Kim Hill.
