CityRide buses from Decemeber 23rd to January 5th will be free.
Just when you think things couldn't get better living in Rotorua with free, two-hour parking, the Bay of Plenty Regional Council has decided to give Rotorua visitors and locals an early Christmas present and made it free to ride CityRide (EkeTaone) buses from December 23 to January 5.

Public Transport Sub-Committee chairman Lyall Thurston said it was a great way to thank regular bus users of our city's public transport system plus encourage others to have a go.
With a bus stop just out the front of my house, my children and I have regularly used the bus to get to and from school and work, respectively.
It's a great way to wind down after work with no stress of having to make your way through the busy afternoon traffic.
It's also a great way for our visitors to get around our city during the festive season and like Mr Thurston said it would help reduce traffic congestion and the effect vehicles have on the environment.
