Meanwhile in news published by the Gisborne Herald at the end of November, residents and visitors to Gisborne are set to benefit from an increase in bus services between here and Napier after bus company InMotion announced it was adding more routes to two of its operations.
ManaBus.com and nakedbus.com chief executive Sheryll Otway said it would start a new Gisborne-to-Napier bus route, with four buses running daily.
“We are very excited to add the Gisborne-Napier route to our network and as we are in growth mode, we’re certainly looking forward to adding additional services to our current network.”
Buses will depart from the Gisborne i-Site at 10.30am and arrive in Napier 3½ hours later, with return trips leaving Napier at 3pm.
The route will operate alongside the Gisborne-to-Rotorua route and a good take-up of services is expected.
Napier services will also be extended to two buses a day between Napier and Wellington.
Tourism Eastland chief executive said having more buses would have positive benefits for visitors and travellers, as well as the continued operation of the Gisborne i-Site, which already acts as the main Gisborne ticketing agency for Nakedbus, Intercity, Interislander and Bluebridge, as well as Kiwi rail services around the country.
“Our team are often run off their feet with ticketing services and this plays a key role in maintaining the i-Site operation.
“The link south with other Nakedbus and Manabus services will give our team more options for the customer and that can only be a good outcome.”
Mr Perry said additional coach services would be great . . . “particularly at peak times when there have been occasions in recent times when seat availability has been stretched.
“Of course everyone knows that a bit of competition is healthy and I am sure the customers — the domestic and international travellers using the service will benefit.” - Gisborne Herald 30/11/2015
