A much anticipated review of Greater Christchurch’s bus network is expected to heed the calls of communities “crying out” for better services.
Halswell in particular has been identified as an area needing better access to public transport, but communities in Christchurch East/Northeast are also on the radar.
Environment Canterbury (ECan) is in the early stages of reviewing the network, something it has not done city-wide since 2014.
Both regional and city councillors say there is clear demand for more services in Christchurch’s outer suburbs: the obstacle was funding.
