Timetables for the staff intercampus minibus service:

Eligibility
The student bus service is provided for students enrolled in courses or undertaking postgraduate study at the Tāmaki Innovation Campus. The service enables these students to travel between the City and Tāmaki campuses to attend classes and to use other University services.
Students may use the service only during those semesters in which they are enrolled for courses at the Tāmaki Innovation Campus.

Bus Travel Pass
Eligible students will have their use of the service validated by the application of a uniquely numbered sticker to their ID card. The issue of stickers will take place in the third week of each Semester, once enrolments have settled. Students will receive their sticker by presenting their current ID card at Campus Information, Building 730. Prior to the issue of the sticker all students attending lectures at Tāmaki will be allowed to utilise the service in good faith but will still need to present their ID cards to the driver during this period. Once stickers have been issued only students presenting validated ID cards will be permitted to travel.
Notices will be posted in the buses, during the first two weeks of service, advising students of the process and timetable for the collection of bus travel stickers.

Student ID Cards
Students must carry their ID cards at all times. The bus sticker, which is numbered, will be recorded against the student's ID at the time of issue. If an ID card is lost then another may be ordered, at replacement cost, through Campus Information.

Exceptions
Students who are not enrolled for courses at Tāmaki, but who are required to travel to Tāmaki for other academic purposes, may apply to use the service. To obtain the necessary approval the student or cohort is required to have their lecturer or supervisor provide an email advice to tamaki-info@auckland.ac.nz detailing the student’s or cohort’s name/s, ID number/s and the reason they need to use the service. All applications will be reviewed and approval granted only where the intended use is justified.

A validating sticker or letter authorising the specific period of travel will be issued, via Campus Information, for those students granted such approval.

This is not a park and ride service and should not be used as a substitute for public or private transportation to or from work.
