Bus lanes and car parking

Tūnga waka me ngā ara Pahi

Bus lanes and car parking

The start date of the new bus lanes has been delayed.

As a result of community feedback, Commissioners decided to defer the introduction of the bus lanes. The implementation plan for the bus lanes was considered by the new Council in August 2024 and a decision made to engage further with the community. This is expected to happen in early 2025. In the meantime, there are some vertical orange poles (hit sticks) in sections of Cameron Road in the bus lanes. These will remain in place until the bus lanes are officially in use.

The bus lanes are one of the ways the Building our future - Cameron Road, Te Papa project will help address Tauranga’s growth, revitalise a key part of our city, and provide more transport options so people don’t have to be so car dependent, all things the community has said they would like.
