Additional Route 72 Bus Service During NCEA Exams
With NCEA examinations commencing next week, we want to ensure students can get to school on time and have a reliable travel option available.
From Tuesday 10 November through to Friday 13 November, an additional Route 72 school bus will operate each morning. This is a duplicate of the existing Route 72 service and will follow the same route and timetable.
The additional bus will:
Depart Green Island Outbound Stop at 7.53am
Travel via the Abbotsford Loop
Arrive at Green Island Inbound Stop at 8.06am
Arrive at Kaikorai Valley College at 8.12am
Arrive at 330 Stuart Street (near Otago Boys' High School and Moana Pool) at 8.19am
Arrive at 125 York Place (closest stop to Otago Girls' High School and Trinity Catholic College) at 8.20am
Arrive at the Bus Hub at 8.26am
This additional capacity is being provided to help accommodate students travelling to school during the NCEA examination period.
