Have your say on the Proposed installation of a bus shelter at bus stop 9876 – Tirohanga Road opposite 189
As part of Metlink’s ongoing commitment to improving public transport infrastructure, we are proposing to install a new bus shelter at the bus stop identified above. Due to the high number of passengers using this stop, it has been identified as a suitable location for additional shelter.
Providing safe, comfortable, and accessible shelters is an important part of enhancing the customer experience. Feedback from passengers highlights the value of bus shelters in making journeys more comfortable, and research indicates that bus stop shelters can encourage greater public transport use, supporting Metlink’s long-term objectives.
Further information about the proposed shelter location is included below. Before proceeding with the installation, Metlink would like to hear any comments or concerns you may have regarding the proposal. A consultation form is provided below.
