Transport in Auckland appears to be at its knees at the moment.
Auckland Transport is asking people not to travel on public transport during peak hours if possible.
It says during March that buses, trains and ferries will be busier and more services will have standing room only.
Public Transport Users Association spokesperson Jon Reeves says there needs to be a clear path out of this situation.
"The rail work needs to be done. Buses, look, we're paying bus drivers effectively peanuts for the danger and hours they have to work. So until we sort that out, we won't get enough bus drivers. We're going to be in the thick of it."
