Catch A Ride To The Game With Metlink – Extra Public Transport For Hurricanes And Phoenix
Extra capacity on some Metlink train services and larger buses will be running for the Hurricanes vs Moana Pasifika clash (7.05pm, Friday 20 February) and Phoenix vs Auckland FC derby (5pm, Saturday 21 February) to reduce congestion and ease pressure on the wider transport system.
On Friday the Hutt Valley, Kāpiti and Johnsonville lines will be running with increased capacity added after the game and there will be extra services on these lines before and after Saturday’s match.
The Wairarapa Line will be running on its usual timetable – with Friday's last service leaving Wellington Station at 10.25pm and Saturday’s last service at 6.55pm.
Core bus routes will have increased capacity, and the East-by-West ferry will be running at standard operating times.
Metlink recommends using a Snapper card to tag on and off, instead of cash, to access discounted fares.
Plan ahead and travel early on game day using the latest travel information on the Metlink app, website, or by calling 0800 801 700.
