From Monday! Route 18e extended to 7 day service 7am to 8 pm

Sarah Free from Sarah Free - Wellington City Councillor

I’ve just seen the news below on the Metlink website. It has come in response to pressure from the community, including advocacy from your local Ward Councillors and MPs.

Along with the extension of Route 14 back to Kilbirnie this is a good start, but there is still more that needs to be done! I’ll certainly be keeping the pressure on GWRC for more improvements.

“Valid from: 01/10/2018 7:20am

The 18e route is extended as a seven-day-a-week service, including buses between 6pm and 8pm, from Miramar North to Karori South.

It will provide direct connections to Newtown, the hospital, Massey University and Victoria University's Kelburn campus.

It will run without transfers and be available as an all-day service rather than just peak hours.

Please note some shuttle buses for route 18 will be replaced by full-size buses numbered 18e.

The new 18e services won’t show in Real Time Information channels immediately but they will be updated in due course.

18e outbound services will depart Karori at Allington Road Monday to Friday at 7.23am, 7.43am, 8.03am, 8.23am, 8.43am, 9.44am, 10.44am, 11.44am, 12.44pm, 1.44pm, 2.44pm, 3.27pm, 3.47pm, 4.07pm, 4.27pm, 5.07pm, 5.27pm, 6.07pm 7.05pm and 8.05pm.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
