Bus fares across Taranaki look set to increase from July, in response to a Government directive that will result in public transport fares rising across the country. Taranaki Regional Council’s Executive, Audit & Risk Committee yesterday recommended the Council adopt a 25% fare increase for adults and an average 13.5% increase for youth from 1 July 2025. This means a Citylink ride within the New Plymouth district will go from a flat $2 to $2.25 for youth and $2.50 for adults (with a Bee Card).

the pest management you should be thinking about each season and any changes to Council rules or procedures.

method, this increase is also evident in our
