Cuba Street Bus Diversion http://www.metlink.org.nz/cuba-street-bus-diversion-2/ <h3 align="left"><strong>Monday 27 September to Saturday 27 November 2010</strong></h3> <p align="left">Due to Manners Street construction buses will not travel via Lower Cuba Street from Monday 27 September.</p> <p align="left">Southbound routes will follow a normal route until they reach the Wakefield Street and lower Cuba Street intersection where they will proceed along Wakefield Street stopping opposite the Duxton Hotel. Buses will then take a right turn up Taranaki Street and left into Courtenay Place (Except routes 10, 11 and 21) and continue their normal routes.</p> <p align="left">Northbound routes towards the station from Courtenay Place will not be affected.</p> <p align="left">Please note during this time the overhead wires in some areas will not be working so trolley buses will be stopping to de-pole and re-pole. We are making every effort to ensure running times are not affected, including having people de-pole and re-pole the buses so the driver doesn't need to leave the bus.</p> <p align="left">Normal Cuba Street departure times will be observed.</p> Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +1200 http://www.metlink.org.nz/cuba-street-bus-diversion-2/
