Once implemented, which would take at least the next decade, Christchurch’s five main bus routes would have a “turn-up-and-go” model, where a bus arrived every 7.5 minutes between 7am and 7pm on weekdays. Presently, the main routes had a 10 or 15-minute frequency. Most of the project would be funded by the Christchurch City Council. It recently approved $71m towards the plan in its 10-year budget. Of this, $59m would be used for bus lanes and intersection improvements, $8m would go towards bus stop upgrades, and $4m was set aside to improve the central city interchange.
