Tauranga residents are being warned to prepare for delays on the city's streets next month.
Zespri AIMS Games is taking place across Tauranga from Saturday, September 2, until Friday, September 8.
"Residents should expect some delays as the event typically brings more than 20,000 athletes and supporters to the city," says a statement from Tauranga City Council.
"A free park and ride service is being provided by Tauranga City Council and Bay of Plenty Regional Council to help relieve congestion and encourage uptake in more sustainable transport.
"The service will travel from Mount Hot Pools to Gordon Spratt Reserve and return, stopping at Blake Park, Baywave and Mercury Baypark.
"Local supporters are encouraged to check out the games and use the free service to get around too."

Now…..logically, to me anyway, due to the crippling effect of the incompetent traffic/road management surely it would make more sense to send AIMS somewhere else for a year? Hamilton! Central and accessible, and probably not as held to ransom by roadworks!
