Dear Mr Davenport
Request for information 2018-372
I refer to your request for information dated 12 December 2018, which was received by Greater
Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) on 12 December 2018. You have requested the following
information:
“I would like to request the following information about bus and bike workshops run by
Metlink for the last 2 years:
1) The dates organised
2) The dates run
3) The attendance of each workshop in:
a) bus drivers, and
b) cyclists
4) The location of each workshop.
GWRC’s response follows.
GWRC has run five bus bike workshops in the last two years. The organisation of workshops was
not completed on a single date, but over a series of days in the weeks preceding the workshops.
Consequently the date workshops were run has been provided, but not a specific date for when these
were organised. The workshops were as follows:
15 February 2017 workshop held at ASB Stadium, Wellington with NZ BUS drivers. 11
drivers and 1 cyclist attended.
19 April 2017 workshop held in Masterton with TRANZIT drivers. 16 drivers and 7 cyclists
attended.
