Routes take approximately 35-40 minutes to complete. The colour of the route name corresponds with the route colour on the map, indicating the direction the bus will travel when departing the Main St Terminal. (For Summerhill services please see separate timetable). 01 Find your current location on the map and where you wish to go. 02 Choose the time you wish to travel and be at the stop 5 minutes prior. 03 Please signal the driver when you see your bus approaching.

PLAN AHEAD Download the GoHorizons bus app free from the Apple Store or Google Play. Enter your current location, where you would like to go and when you would like to arrive/leave and the app matches you to the right bus. 4 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What does HOME ONLY mean? The driver will not pick up passengers on the route, only dropping off. The service departs the Main St Terminal and drops passengers off at the stop nearest their destination. The bus will not return to Main Street Terminal when it finishes and the route may take longer than 40 minutes. What is an OUTER TERMINAL (OT)? The OT is a normal bus stop that is halfway along the bus route. Help I've left something on the bus, who do I call? Give the bus operator a call on 06 355 4955. Please note no responsibility will be accepted by the bus operator or Horizons Regional Council for lost property. I'm a Massey/UCOL student or staff member, how do I catch the bus for free? Make sure you have your current student/staff ID ready when you catch the bus. Your ID means you can travel for free on the Palmerston North services. Only current internal students and staff based in Palmerston North, with active smart cards, can travel for free. All other ID allows discounted travel only. I need to catch two buses to get across town, do I have to pay two fares? As long as you are catching your second bus within one hour of your original trip you simply need to have your original ticket with you and show it to the next driver. Transfers are not valid for return trips. Buses are wheelchair accessible, what does that mean? Wheelchair accessible buses are low floored, no more steps to climb up, and there is enough room for wheelchairs to fit. Please note if your wheelchair takes up a space of more than 700mm wide and 1200mm long and/or has a combined weight (passenger and chair) of more than 240kgs it cannot be carried. 5 PALMERSTON NORTH JOHN F KENNEDY DRMILSON LN GILLESPIES LN BENMORE AVE ST PETERS OT COLLEGE FAIRS RD BOTANICAL RD BOTANICAL WOOD ST TREMAINE AVE TREMAINE AVE TREMAINE AVE ST KAIMANAWA M c PARNELL HEIGHTS RANGITIKEI ST CLEAVEY DR RUAHINE ST RUAHINE VOGEL ST OT HOSPITAL LN JAMES OT BOYS HIGH FREYBERG HIGH SCHOOL SCHOOL AMBERLEY AVE AMBERLEY PEMBROKE ST OT FEATHERSTON ST FEATHERSTON ST FEATHERSTON ST ROBERTS LN RONBERG ST UCOL CHELWOOD ST RANGIORA AVE BROOKLYN HEIGHTS DR PENCARROW ST BROADWAY AVE MIHAERE DR CUBA ST PIONEER HWY ALBERT ST MAIN ST NAPIER RD CHURCH ST MAXWELLS LN MAXWELLS RUGBY ST LIMBRICK ST FERGUSON ST FERGUSON ST MANSON ST RUAHINE ST OT ALBERT ST COLLEGE ST AWATAPU FITZHERBERT AVE COLLEGE PARK RD OT GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL SLACKS RD PAHIATUA ST TO MASSEY (TURITEA CAMPUS) TO IPU 6 ROUTES GRAB-A 1 Awapuni 8 Roslyn 2 Rugby 9 Rangiora 3 Highbury 10 Brightwater GoCard! 4 Takaro 31 Fernlea 5 Cloverlea 32 Heights JOHN F KENNEDY DRMILSON LN 6 Milson Timing Points 7 Rhodes OT Outer Terminals (OT) GILLESPIES LN All routes are complete loops, once the bus departs the Main St BENMORE AVE ST PETERS COLLEGE terminal (MST), it will travel in either a clockwise or anticlockwise OT direction until it arrives back at the Main St terminal.
