Temporary change to Raetihi and Ohakune bus service

Horizons Regional Council’s bus service between Raetihi and Ohakune will be increased temporarily to operate on both Tuesdays and Thursdays, each week, from 14 January 2020.

Horizons transport manager Phil Hindrup says the increase in service will run until 2 April 2020.
 
“The current services operate every second Tuesday – once a fortnight. With the new increase to Tuesday and Thursday every week, we are hoping to have a rise in uptake.”
 
Mr Hindrup says the temporary change will determine if there will be any permanent amendments to the service into the future.
 
“This temporary increase in service will run for three months, ending in April 2020. After which time we will evaluate the anticipated uptake, and propose any necessary changes.”
