Otago Regional Council (ORC), together with its partner agencies, has prepared this Regional Public Transport Plan (RPTP) to set out the objectives and policies for delivering public transport in Dunedin, Wakatipu and the wider Otago Region from 2021 to 2031.

It is a strategic document that will direct ORC’s focus and investment over the coming decade and provide clear direction on how to respond to future challenges and opportunities.

This RPTP describes the proposed public transport services that will meet the needs of new and existing customers and the policies which those services will operate under. It also explains how ORC will work in partnership with operators and city and district councils in Otago, known as territorial authorities.

This plan replaces the RPTP 2014-2021.  

This plan is in the process of being updated. Council will consider adopting the RPTP 2025-2035 in June/July 2025.
