One of New Zealand's most famously car-reliant cities is trialling a new approach to public transport.
The new on-demand electric buses work as an Uber-like service- where commuters can summon them instead of waiting for a regular bus.
Bay of Plenty regional councillor Andrew von Dadelszen says these buses operate within zones to get people closer to their chosen destination.
"You just go on the app and book it- and the bus will come and collect you and take you to where you want to go."
