Cook Strait ferry service Bluebridge will return to full service tonight following an engineering issue.
The company had to remove a vessel from service Monday due to a gearbox issue.
It came at the worst possible time for the service, with holiday traffic on top of its usual busy freight load.
“We apologise for the disruption and are doing everything we can to get our service back up and running again as quickly as possible,” the company said earlier in the week in a statement.
Today they confirm the vessel is returning to service.
“The engineering issue is now resolved and our ships will be returning to their full schedule from 8.45pm Fri 4th January. Thank you for your patience – we look forward to welcoming you back on board.”
