Layoff timeline
2 EVENTSTransdev plans a major reduction in staffing on Wellington's commuter rail network, proposing to cut Passenger Operator (PO) roles from 78 to 25 by July 2027, eliminating 53 positions. The company cites the introduction of cashless ticketing and ongoing financial losses in its Wellington operation as reasons for the restructuring and began staff consultation on August 3 with an accelerated timetable for decisions by late August. The proposal would remove 27 roles starting September 1 through a 'sinking lid' (natural attrition) approach and a further 26 roles effective July 1, 2027, reducing onboard PO staffing across multiple lines and raising safety concerns. Transdev says no final decisions have been made and calls the impact 'modest,' while unions and workers warn of increased risks and job losses; the GWRC aims to end cash payments by March 2027.
