Bus Services for The Lakes
I see that the regional council has updated bus routes throughout Tauranga with more buses and connections which is great. However, it seems like The Lakes got left off any extensions to services. There is currently at least 3-4 bus stops around the lakes area that are not included on routes which could take another 50 to 100 more folks off the road communiting via bus if the routes extended.
I also see that the CBD to lakes return connection only stops at Tauranga Crossing still.
Come on Baybus, people would use the services more if they provided suitable connections in these emerging suburbs.
