Wellington’s number two bus route quietly goes electric
- 9 Feb 2022
- Metlink
- Noisy diesel buses are a thing of the past on the number two bus route, the first in Wellington to be fully decarbonised following the arrival of the capital’s 55th electric bus. Greater Wellington chair Daran Ponter said the council’s public transport wing, Metlink, was now more than halfway to its goal of having 108 electric vehicles (EVs) on the road by December 2023. “Metlink can be confident of reaching the target, making 22 percent of its buses electric by the end of next year,” Ponter said. “That’s one in every five.”

Hard work keeps rail improvements on track
- 4 Feb 2022
- Metlink
- Metlink is showing its gratitude to Kiwirail and its passengers for their patience, while work went ahead on the Wellington rail network over Summer. Daran Ponter, Greater Wellington Council Chair, said Kiwirail should be proud of its efforts to improve the network’s safety, performance, and sustainability. “I’d like to thank those who worked so diligently on the network during a time when the majority of us were enjoying a break from work,” Ponter said. “I hope they take satisfaction from knowing that commuters will reap the benefits of their hard work now and in the future.” On Boxing Day, work started at Plimmerton Station to build an additional platform, realign the tracks, and enhance safety measures at Steyne and Pascoe Avenue level crossings.
