R2 and R4 changes coming 2 November
Posted on 23 October 2026
Route 2 diversion
Route 2 outbound buses will now travel via Songer St into Main Rd Stoke. Inbound route 2 buses will turn left from Main Rd Stoke into Songer St. The buses will not use Neale Ave and Putaitai St anymore.
Route 2 outbound buses will therefore not pass the Stoke Interchange Southbound stop – their new timed stop will now be at stop 2305 – Songer St at Railway Reserve. There is no change to the inbound stops.
This is a permanent change.
Route 4 Timetable Change
All departures from the airport will be delayed by 5 minutes. This will assist the timetable to work better as buses have been getting though to the Nelson Bus Hub too early.
