Manukau’s new bus station – a
sneak peek
Auckland Transport has released a video of
what the Manukau Bus Station will look like once
construction is complete in the second half of 2017.
The
new bus station will be located next to Manukau Train
Station and will be at the heart of the new public transport
network for south Auckland.
Enabling works to prepare the
site for main construction works have been completed, which
included installing a new stormwater management system,
vertical sand drains, drainage blanket and preload through
the middle of the site.
Main construction work is expected
to start later this year.
The video and more information
on the Manukau Bus Station project can be viewed on Auckland
