Bus Stop Changes

1 September 2023

Passengers urged to check for bus stop changes.

Changes to bus stops on routes throughout the city will start on 4 September 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 come into effect on Monday. There are also changes to bus stops in Lake Hayes for Queenstown passengers.

Some bus stops will be removed, and new bus stops will be in place from the start of next week. Notices have been placed at bus stops that will 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.
