As of Monday 25^th July 2022, an additional morning bus trip will be operating in the northbound direction departing from Rāpaki at 7:15am.

The additional Rāpaki service is the result of community feedback that came through in a recent consultation. Previously high school students travelling from Rāpaki had to arrive very early at school or so often had to be driven by parents instead. This new service gives these students another option for travelling to school on the bus at a more favourable time slot.

This new service is live and showing in Metro’s Journey Planner and Next Bus tools.

Everyone who lives between Rāpaki and Lyttelton is welcome to make the most of this new addition.
