This Bus Driver Appreciation Day, Metlink is celebrating the drivers who pull out all the stops for its network.
If you’re in Kāpiti and spot a bus driver with a beaming smile behind the wheel, it’s probably Paulette.
“I'm the type of person who's always waving at the other bus drivers,” Paulette says. She’s always looking out to see if she can improve someone’s day.
“If I'm sitting at the traffic lights and one of my colleagues pulls up in their bus, then I'm doing a little dance to entertain them!”
Paulette has been driving for UzaBus for 20 months, but it wasn’t a job she had ever considered before.
We’d like to apologise for service disruptions on our rail network this morning, both on the Hutt Valley line between Ngauranga and Petone and between Porirua and Waikanae on the Kapiti Line.
Metlink is making minor changes to its rail timetable on the Kapiti Line to increase capacity during the morning peak, and to improve punctuality of service in the morning and afternoon peak.
