Youth bus fares are changing in Northland from May 1 as the Government plans to reduce public transport funding. City Link and Bus Link fares will mean: Children aged under-4 go free; it’s $1 for kids 5 to 18; and $2 for those 18 and over. The fare change won’t affect the Community Service Card and SuperGold Card holders.
