Upgraded Huntly Bus Service
Hi , I have just read the 'Sponsored Post' from BusIt about the upgraded service from Huntly ( and Te Kauwhata , etc ) -- good on you guys .
I assume the one trip a day through to Pukekohe still applies too ? It looks like we can't ask questions on your post , or message you , hence why I am asking here .
Also , are you legally allowed to extend this service , for example to Papakura ?
There is apparently 150 people a day who would use such a service ( probably more , as BusIt would presumably be cheaper than $30plus each way ? ) .
You never know -- they may even give you $120 million to get this service going too !

An Official Information Act response reveals the council’s worst rates arrears, with a single Raglan property topping the list at $234,017.07 outstanding.
