Metro Bus Services Not Operating Monday Sept 6
Earthquake – September 5, 2010 – 4.50pm
Metro Bus Services Not Operating Monday September 6
Metro bus services for Christchurch, Selwyn, and Waimakariri districts will not operate on Monday September 6.
This is to allow more time to assess the damage to roads in Christchurch and surrounding areas before passenger bus services can resume following the September 4 earthquake.
The Bus Exchange building in Lichfield Street needs to be fully assessed before it can begin operating again as the hub for the Metro service. The central city also remains cordoned off making bus operations difficult. Metro operations will be reviewed on a daily basis and the Metro website (metroinfo.co.nz) will have the latest status. The Diamond Harbour Ferry will operate as per usual allowing people to travel to Lyttelton, although there will be no connecting buses for travel to Christchurch.
