Bus Service Survey
The Invercargill City Council is reviewing the city’s bus services, which last changed in 2012.
We’d really like to know what bus services you want (even if you don’t currently use them) to help us work out what Invercargill needs for the future.
To gather the information, a householder survey has been developed (one survey to be completed by each participating household). The householder survey should take just a few minutes and should reach the Council by Monday, 15 May 2017.
There are three ways to have your say:
◦ONLINE: Complete the survey online
◦LIBRARY: Drop you completed form into one of the labelled boxes at the Invercargill Public Library in Dee Street, or
◦POST: Post your completed form to:

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
