With school about to start again, the Otago Regional Council is urging pupils to consider travelling to school on Orbus.
Bus travel is free for children aged from 5 to 12 years with a registered Bee Card, and $1.20 for 13 to 18-year-olds, for a single trip in Dunedin.
You can only use a Bee Card or cash to pay for your bus fare. Bank and credit cards cannot be used on buses to pay for a bus fare.
Bee Cards can be bought for $5 with a minimum $5 top-up, either on the Bee Card website or in person at a Bee Card retailer.
