Temporary Diversion & Bus Stop Closures
Roadworks, Lambton Quay North/Whitmore Street Intersection
Stops affected: #5015, #5014 & #5011
Temporary closures and diversions
These will come into effect between the hours of 7pm to 5am each day commencing Saturday 18 January to Sunday 19 January 2020.
Why is it closing? Essential works on the Lambton Quay North/Whitmore Street intersection area are necessary to prevent further damage. As a result the lane heading towards Wellington Rail/suburbs will need to be closed from Stout Street to the Whitmore Street intersection allowing contractors to carry out this work. The road will be closed to all traffic, including buses, which will be diverting via Stout Street.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
