Warkworth bus timetable change

Auckland Transport (AT) is making some changes to the timetable for the one-way bus service around Warkworth (999).

From Sunday June 14, services will start later in the morning, from 7.15am, seven days a week.

The change follows a request from the Rodney Local Board to review route patronage, which found that the 6.15am and 6.45am services on weekdays, and the 5.45am and 6.15am services on weekends, were the least used by passengers.

AT says it will continue to monitor and review the route, making improvements as needed.

Currently, the service runs about every 30 minutes, with 12 stops on the route.

It was introduced in 2024 and is still being trialled, with a final decision on whether or not to continue it likely to be made next year.

The 999 bus was introduced to improve local commuters’ access to public transport.
