Buses replace trains on Anzac Day and the following weekend

Disruptions & Detours Public Holidays & Events

Buses will replace all Metlink train services on Anzac Day, 25 April, and the weekend that follows, 27-28 April, due to planned maintenance.  

Trains will operate as usual on Friday 26 April on all lines except the Wairarapa Line. For Wairarapa passengers, buses replace trains from 25-28 April.  

The planned maintenance is part of a wider renewal schedule across the rail network. In the Wairarapa, the four-day closure will enable KiwiRail to complete work on the pedestrian section of the Fitzherbert Street level crossing and continue work inside the 8.8km Remutaka tunnel.
