Passengers urged to check bus stop changes

Charlotte Flaherty —

Changes to bus stops on routes throughout the city started this week as part of wider improvements to the bus service.

Otago Regional Council (ORC) is asking Dunedin passengers who get off at bus stops on Princes Street, at the Gardens, and in Tainui to be aware of the changes that came into effect this week. 

Some bus stops have been removed, and new bus stops will be in place this week. Notices have been placed at bus stops that were to change. Passengers are advised that if their bus stop has no notice attached then there are no changes. Check the ORC website for more details.

All bus stop changes will be updated on the ORC website - timetables, transit and real-time tracking from Monday morning. Dunedin buses (orc.govt.nz) Please note temporary stops may be in place until new stops are constructed.

Major bus stop changes are listed here; minor bus stop changes can be found on the ORC website.
