Shuttle Service

Patients and their caregivers / visitors can use the DHB shuttle van service to travel between Kenepuru and Wellington hospitals. This service is free of charge.

You do need to book a seat on this service, preferably at least one hour before you intend to travel. This can be done by calling the Wellington transport office phone (04) 806-2708 or email shuttle.booking@ccdhb.org.nz

The service runs every hour on weekdays, with the first shuttles departing simultaneously from both sites at 7.00am. Departures continue each hour on the hour, with the final departure at 6.00pm.

The shuttle does not operate on weekends or public holidays and reduced schedules operate over the Christmas / New Year peak holiday period.

Travel Times

Travel time is usually around 30 minutes, but can be up to 45 minutes as collections and deliveries are often made during the run.

We suggest that patients using the shuttle to travel to appointments notify clinic staff, so that appointments can be scheduled for 15 minutes before the hour, or on the hour.

Shuttle vans are not wheelchair accessible. If an accessible vehicle is required, please let us know when you make your booking and we will try to arrange for this. Please book at least 24 hours in advance.
