Matt DooceyFeedback given at a public meeting in Waikuku last month over a proposal to cancel the Waikuku bus route was heard loud and clear by Environment Canterbury (ECan), Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey says. He says ECan is bringing a new proposal to the table to retain up to two trips each weekday to and from Waikuku. ''This is a big move from the original proposal to cancel the service completely,'' Mr Doocey says. More than 100 residents attended the meeting, to which he invited ECan after Waikuku resident Kristina Poulter raised the issue with him. ECan is working closely with all the Waikuku submitters as it works through the logistics of retaining two trips each weekday.
