Metlink GM Scott Gallacher says, that while there are still a number of issues to work out, all trains and buses will move to Sunday services after Tuesday.
“We’ll work to deliver to the current timetables across the network tomorrow but from first thing Wednesday morning, Sunday timetables will be implemented,” says Mr Gallacher.
Buses will no longer board from the front door. Metlink apologises to customers who rely on the accessibility options provided at the front door and encourages customers to find out more about Total Mobility services during this time by calling 0800 801 700.
Customers will be encouraged to continue their own physical distancing practices on all trains and buses, leaving a space next to them where they can.
“We’re still working out what this might mean for Wairarapa rail services and will provide more updates when they become available,” says Mr Gallacher.
UPDATE: As part of the move to Sunday timetables, Metlink school bus services will not run from Wednesday.

I'm a mother living in Wadestown and am currently studying remotely from home. I'm around a lot and can help if you are vulnerable and need anything picked up from the supermarket or pharmacy, or if you are scared and need a chat. I've got four kids so am very keen to stay a safe distance and keep safe and well. Please feel free to text or call. Please, don't take any risks. If in doubt, stay home! And wash your hands!
(Ps, i've just seen some posts where people discuss scammers etc. I don't want to come into your house. if you need help, or you're worried about your elderly parents, we can discuss an arrangement that makes you feel safe. I will leave anything you need outside, and you can leave me a note in the letterbox, for example. Feel free to look me up on LinkedIn if you need to verify me)
Take care
