Full fares will return across the region on July 1 now that New Zealand has moved to alert level 1 and physical distancing restrictions have been lifted.

Fares, including the handling of cash, were temporarily suspended to support the Government’s public health response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Metlink has been working very closely with the Government on the safest and fairest time to reintroduce full fares to passengers across the region.

Advice from the Ministry of Health has confirmed it is safe to handle cash, provided this is done responsibly. Good hand hygiene remains essential, with passengers and staff continuing to wash or sanitise their hands as soon as they can during, before and after travel. To learn more, read the full release on our website below.

Aluminium can fundraiser?

Kylie from Alicetown

Does anyone know of any group collecting aluminium cans for a fundraiser? We stock-piled recycling during lockdown and have a decent bucket full. Seems a waste to just put out by the curb, but also not nearly enough on its own to take to cash for scrap place.
