Otago Regional Council has announced a temporary suspension of bike rack use on Dunedin buses during the day and night (see attached media release).
The restriction has been issued by the Bus and Coach Association on behalf of bus operators. It is in line with actions by other transport operators throughout New Zealand following a safety notice from NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) saying that carrying bikes can potentially obscure headlights on some models.
