NZ Bus services running as normal from today

Caroline Williams Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Aucklanders, NZ Bus services have resumed, following six days of driver suspensions affecting approximately 70,000 trips daily. The suspensions came as bus drivers stopped accepting passenger fares, in a bid for better pay work hours. On Thursday, First Union and Tramways withdrew industrial action after Auckland Council got involved with concerns of the suspension's impact on the city's public transport. However, union members and NZ Bus are yet to come to an agreement.
Were you able to catch your normal bus this morning?

🔌FREE $50 OFF ANY ELECTRICAL WORK - LIMIT 7🔌

Kate from Illuminate Ltd

Have you got any electrical faults, downlight replacing, outdoor lighting, switchboard upgrades that need servicing?

If so, then we’ve got you covered!


We’ve been busy here at Illuminate but we’ve had a big house job put on hold until next week which means a couple of our tradesmen will be knocking around the workshop for the next few days.

We’d rather they were kept busy so we’ll give you $50 of your bill for any work booked in for next week.

Plus we’ll do a free Switchboard Inspection (valued at $79) while we’re at your place to check the safety standards.

📞Call us on 09 238 3384 to book or send a message mentioning this post to get the discount.

If you know of someone that needs any electrical work done, tag them in this post. 💡🛠️
