On-Bus Announcements test run on 20 buses in Wellington
- Metlink
- Primarily, the on-bus announcement system makes public transport easier and safer for riders with disabilities and impairments. It also benefits people who are unfamiliar with public transport, anyone catching a route they don’t normally use, and visitors to the region. The system will announce all stops during both off-peak and peak commuter times, because riders that benefit from this system travel during all times of the day.
