Queenstown Bus service
Hi,
I would really like to go on record with my complaint about what has become a very erratic bus service. I do not drive, am a senior and use the bus to do my shopping, visit friends and do some relieving at the local high school. In the past three weeks I have waited in vain for more than an hour for a bus that never arrived. As a result, I could not make it for my booster shot, for a 'Sustainable Queenstown' event that I bought tickets for and have had to pay through my nose for an Uber to get to my relieving so as not to let the school down. I am sure there are a whole lot of people affected. What's happening? The bus service has always been so reliable.
Thanks,
June Baptista
