Commuters on Auckland's Gulf Harbour peninsula are facing even more cancelled ferry trips, leaving some with no option but to spend two hours on a bus if they need to get to town.
From today, the Gulf Harbour ferry will only operate twice in the morning, and twice in the evening, a decision Auckland Council says was necessary due to a shortage of staff.
Replacement buses, that take double the time, will now have to pick up the slack.
