Major road works to cause bus delays

From Monday 11 October road works at the Tremaine/Cloverlea roundabout will cause delays to four bus services.

Horizons Regional Council Transport Manager Mark Read says passengers on the 103,104,105 and 106 bus services can anticipate delays during this time.
 
“Gillespie’s Line and Botanical Road exits from the roundabout will be closed over this period.” Mr Read says.
 
“The 103 and 104 bus service will detour via Highbury Ave and Coventry St causing some minor delays.
 
“The 105 and 106 will travel across the railroad using Rangitīkei St which may cause major delays.”
