Show Notes
Auckland Transport has been forced to scale back its 'bus to the mall' campaign after facing pushback from local business owners.
The campaign included a singing bus stop in Newmarket - but more controversially, billsticker posters placed throughout Auckland’s small retail villages.
Karangahape Road business owner Muy Chhour says this campaign is a 'kick in the guts' to local business owners in Auckland.
"It's not good at all - it tarnishes the relationships with business districts and Auckland Transport. It takes away the customers from local businesses and takes them to the mall."
