Bus driver strike deferred until Thursday 25 October
The bus driver strike which was originally planned from Tuesday 23 October has been deferred until Thursday 25 October.
Bus services will no longer be affected on Tuesday 23 October, as previously advertised. We regret the impact and uncertainty the industrial action is having on our bus customers.
The strike action on Thursday could affect some services in Wellington city, Hutt Valley and Porirua. We will keep you updated on our website and social media.
