New bus stop on Fraser Street

For immediate release: 22 April 2009
 
From Monday, 27 April 2009 public buses will no longer travel into Fraser Cove shopping centre. 
 
Instead, buses operating routes 7A/7C and 8 will use bus stops both sides of Fraser Street, in front of the new Countdown supermarket.
 
Environment Bay of Plenty Transport Planner Barry Reid said the change to the bus stop is expected to improve travel times between Tauranga city centre, Greerton and Ohauiti, without compromising bus passenger access to Fraser Cove.
 
“With the recent developments and expansion at Fraser Cove the improvements to bus stops and pedestrian crossings on Fraser St will provide ease of access for bus passengers and buses,” Mr Reid said.
