CityLink users offered free ‘Bee Card’ until 31 August
Whangarei’s CityLink public buses are now able to accept a new contactless ‘Bee Card’. Bee Card is a new prepaid card, also being adopted by a number of other regions around New Zealand as part of a move towards a cashless society.
While cash will still be accepted on CityLink buses, Bee Cards should make boarding faster and easier for passengers.
To help people get started with the Bee Card, the card fee for online orders will be waived until Monday 31 August, after which Bee Cards will cost $5.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
