Buses in the city are privately owned and subsidised, with the infrastructure (such as bus stops and shelters) owned by the New Plymouth District Council. Planning and subsidising public transport are in turn the responsibility of the Taranaki Regional Council. The district’s transport services are marketed under the name Citylink. [3]
