Push to get airport bus back in Hutt, attracts 700 public submissions

Reporter Community News

A campaign for the reinstatement of a direct bus service between Wellington Airport and Lower Hutt is gaining traction, with 1100 supporters getting on board in just three days.
On Friday, Hutt City Council announced it, along with Hutt South MP Ginny Andersen and Lower Hutt-based National MP Chris Bishop, had started a campaign, called Fight for the Flyer, asking people to provide feedback on the Airport Flyer route to the Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) as it consults on its upcoming Regional Public Transport Plan.
The push comes after Wellington Airport axed the route because it was no longer commercially viable.
