Upgrading bus stops on Pupuke Road and Birkenhead Avenue

The changes we’re proposing

6 and opposite 6 Pupuke Road, Hillcrest – school bus stop

We'll upgrade school bus stops with new footpath areas, road markings and signage. 

We'll install additional broken yellow lines at the bus stops to improve bus manoeuvrability. 

60 Pupuke Road, Hillcrest – stop 3988 

We'll relocate and upgrade bus stop at 62 Pupuke Road with a new bus shelter, footpath area, road markings and signage. 

The new bus shelter will provide a more protected environment for passengers waiting for the bus, particularly during the wet weather.

47 and 60 Pupuke Road, Hillcrest – crossing facility

171 Birkenhead Avenue, Birkenhead – stop 3897

These changes will result in some on-street parking loss but will: 

• ensure customers are able to get on and off buses safely and comfortably 
• allow buses to safely navigate these streets 
• help to create more reliable bus services. 

How this will benefit your neighbourhood 

The improved bus stops will allow the neighbourhood to better access bus services and increase safety for both road users and pedestrians.
