Project update
In September 2024, we engaged with the community about improvements to the bus services in Avondale by installing a bus shelter at the bus stop at 1832-1834 Great North Road, outside the Avondale Police Station. We are pleased to advise that funding has now been allocated to complete this work, and we expect this work to be completed by August 2025.
About the project
Improving our customers experience on public transport is important to us. Better accessibility, reliability and frequency of bus services and routes connects you to schools, sports, local amenities, and work. We want to make travelling through Avondale by bus comfortable and easier for you to enjoy getting around your neighbourhood. More reliable journeys, with improved connections both locally and into the city centre.
Bus stop #8144 was relocated in late 2022 when traffic lights were installed at the intersection of Walsall Street, Great North Road and the new access road for the developments on the western side of Great North Road, opposite the Avondale Police Station.
The developments in Avondale town centre have made this a popular bus stop for locals travelling to New Lynn by bus.
The changes we're making
Installing bus shelter to bus stop #8144. This will be an advertising bus shelter, like the one on the opposite side of Great North Road.
Re-positioning of the bus stop markings and bus stop sign.
There will be no changes to on-street parking arrangements are proposed as part of this project.
Benefits to your community
We have an ongoing programme across the city to improve bus stop infrastructure. Bus shelters provide protection from rain or wind and offer a place to sit while waiting for the bus.
As more new residents move into the developments in this part of Avondale, this bus stop will be increasingly important for those wanting to use public transport to access New Lynn. This is the only New Lynn bound bus stop in this stretch of Great North Road that does not currently have a bus shelter.
What happens next
A contractor will install the bus shelter, and other changes.
