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 !

Three years’ worth of cocaine snorted in three months
More cocaine was taken across Waikato in the last three months than three whole years in the early 2020s.
That’s according to wastewater drug testing carried out by Crown research institute ESR for police.
Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato?
New data has pinpointed Hamilton’s most dangerous intersections, including a high risk Cobham Drive turn off that a resident and driving experts believe should be shut for good.
While that turn into Grey St has resulted in the highest number of injuries, most crashes occurred at the bustling intersection of Te Rapa Straight and Wairere Drive.
