Public opinion wanted-what's wrong with Wellington's buses?
It is almost a year since changes to Wellington city's bus transport network - the regional council is consulting with the public to try and fix it.
The council and Metlink are launching an online forum on Friday, along with public meetings and drop-in sessions for people to voice their opinions and come up with solutions.
Please see the key dates for locations, and if you are unsure which area your suburb sits, there is a map in the FAQ. The first survey to open will be for the Eastern suburbs at 7pm Friday 12 July. Find out more here
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
