Hopefully some bigger Buses will be purchased to replace the remaining older Buses.

Auckland's public transport system is set to be increased by a fleet of 54 new double-decker buses.
Ritchies currently operate 2 double deckers, with another imminent Designline delivery and 15 more BCIs coming from China to operate on the Northern Express which will extend to Silverdale on 18th October.
Howick & Eastern have 15 buses on order, with two prototypes being assembled in England and shipped to Auckland [for October implementation], followed by 13 in production in Tauranga from January, 2016. Buses are expected to be operated on routes 500/501/550/551 [and expresses] from Britomart to Botany and Howick.
NZ Bus has bought 23 of the new buses to be built in Tauranga and delivered between April and July 2016.
Fifteen are planned for use on Mt Eden Road [routes 274/277 to Three Kings and Waikowkai] and eight on the Northern Busway service 881 from Torbay-Albany-City-University-Newmarket.
