More buses for Christchurch's Airport to Sumner route
Buses on Christchurch's Airport to Sumner route (the Purple Line) will run every 10 minutes on weekdays and every 15 minutes on weekends from November 29.
The change comes as Environment Canterbury (ECan) works to provide more buses more often as part of the Regional Public Transport Plan.
Buses will run every 10 minutes on the Purple Line from 7am to 7pm Monday to Friday.
The current 15-minute frequency will continue on Saturdays, and the Sunday timetable will be changed to match. These timings will operate for most of the day except for early mornings and late evenings.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
