Hutt Valley Line & Melling Line
This page only shows planned buses replacing trains schedules.
During unplanned disruptions, bus service information will be included in the service alert. (external link)
Bus stop locations are listed at the bottom of this page.
Website train timetables do not show bus departure times.
Train timetables will highlight bus replaced trips in pink and the service times will be crossed out. This helps you know to check the bus replacement PDF timetable directly, instead of assuming it follows the regular train timetable. The bus replacement timetable is available below or on the train timetable page.
Bike racks on Metlink buses will not be available to passengers from Saturday 9 November 2024 until further notice, following guidance from the NZ Transport Agency (NZTA).
Only compact folding bikes and scooters are permitted on board, and must be folded down before boarding. Full size bicycles can't be brought on board the bus. Learn more.
