As this cache has been out of action for too long, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Hi
It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me within Three Weeks, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.
While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.
I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.
Thanks for your understanding,
Regards,

The bus stop has been replaced and cache is no longer there; last found Dec 2016.
This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
I cam here today with 3 of my Girl Guides as we were out today finishing their Geocaching badge . . . . . we looked high and low and couldn't seem to find anything . . . . . we read back through the log notes and saw that it hasn't been found for a very long time and the "building" looks completely new. We would appreciate the CO checking this one please
We were here today with our Girl Guide leader and we looked all over and couldn't fine where you hid it? Either it's a great hide? or it is gone?
This is a new caching area for me. I arrived just as the bus was leaving taking all the muggles away. Took a bit of jiggling to extract the cache as I did not have a suitable TOTT. TFTC.
Needed a TOTT to extract this one as I couldn't quite move it but a trusty bent wire soon got it within reach. TFTC
Aside from it starting to rain heavily just as we arrived at GZ this one was an easy park and grab with no muggle obstacles. TFTC.
Good quick find here , while caching in an area which is new to me !
Thanks ! Lucky no one waiting here !

I was in the area yesterday finding one of your caches, and as I happened to be around again today I thought I would try and pick up another. However, the thing about today was I got my traffic timing wrong as it was really busy and their were cues of cars passing GZ really slowly. So I grabbed my clip board again and pretended to be some kind of inspector relevant to GZ. So when it came to finding this cache, it was in about the fourth place that I looked. So thank you once again Bartfound for taking the time to set up not only this cache, but also your other ones. Awesome! TFTC
One of us is working out at Chapel Downs this week, so we have taken the opportunity to get our cache of the day a bit further from home than we usually have to venture. Parked near the last stop and found the cache in the second place I looked. Thanks.
Bus stops make great parks for PNG caches Day three of our 4 day road trip from Hawkes Bay to Auckland and back to collect as many caches as we can. Log signed as b&p.Tftc
Nice and easy find. Quite a bit of traffic and muggles walking past while filling the log sheet. Tftc
Shot along to this one after the last a bit further down. Had the geomobile, as was on my way home, so parked just past. As I approached, I though "I wonder if it's in there?" Sure enough.... a cache! Took a seat and signed log, then got out of there before any buses appeared!!!
TFTC!
TFTC!
Another good hide. Easy parking here at 10.30am. Brilliant sunny day too - just one more cache before I take the hounds for a walk.

I was on my way to Papakura to meet up with a friend and picked up a couple of caches along the way. The muggle in the house behind was working in his garden, so when he wasn't watching, I snuck in for the find.
A bit different from the usual bus stop caches. Appropriately named too, as its my last stop for a cache on my way home tonight.
Just had to sit in the car a few minutes until the guy in the property near the cache went back inside. Then it was just a matter of getting to it and signing the log, all done! Moving on.
Found in the second place I looked. Nice, simple and tidy cache. No one around to slow down the search. TFTC

Find 05 of 07 for the day and #1820 in total.
Spent ages at this one and felt quite exposed even though no one probably even payed us any attention.

Found it today with the Geo Gurls. Danni-elle and Kalarni and Waru8. Cool cache enjoyed finding this. Also picked up trackable will move on ASAP.
Yay! Almost this cache's first birthday. Nice and sheltered from the wind too in the bus stop. Cheers!
Look, a cahe that is large enough to take a trackable. Well, I can't leave this one here. It will go north with me tomorrow.
Cheers for the cache.

We spent a morning of caching in the Manukau area, we were caching with members of the Tawhai Team. This was a nice quick find towards the end of the morning.
We left a TB here
Thanks Bartfound for placing this cache.

A spot of weekend caching in Auckland. Nice one.
Made a straightforward find on this one, sort of. Cache in order; log signed, safely re-hidden.
Not the last stop for us, may be the last resort!
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

This one turned out to be very aptly named as I had decided just one more before heading grocery shopping and then home.
Quick find here. Lovely sized cache considering the location. Has a couple of cool kids toys and I also left a trackable.
Thanks for the hide.

Out night caching with Vamber after the paint balling event.
This proved to be a quick find - seen others similar to this.

A while back, I drove past and didn't stop due to many muggles occupying the structure. It was much quieter today and I made the grab quickly. TFTC.
I drove past here a few days back but couldn't stop for the find as there was a muggle at GZ. Nice quick find just after dark this evening. My pen ran out ink while signing the log here, so my effort is rather faded. Cheers for the cache placement!
This is my first cache! Together with my sons, Rad and Ren, we looked for 20mins. Then managed to find it! Yey!
On way back from birthday party & seeing how many 'park & grab' we (Z1 & I) could nab before we would get the 'where are you?' text from the wife. We managed to get three caches before we got the text, on route to this one & it's neighbor. TFTC!
In Auckland for a few days...
We've done a few of these bus stop caches and there is only a limited number of places to hide a cache. TFTC.

Muggles were camped out here and no buses for ages... had to pull the plug without really looking.
Another quick park and grab. Had to do a bit of searching and found it just as Mrs NZTtaveller exited the car to see why I was taking so long. Patience "grasshopper"....
thought someone was eying up our car...BUT no he was waiting for us to leave the "stop"
13987... This wasn't our last stop today... glad the neighbours weren't home. TFTC.
Different model of bus stop to the last one, but i know the hiding spot in these too.

The boys searched for this one, and 9YO came up with the cache really quickly. There weren't a lot of cars on the road, so no stealth required (thankfully, as the boys aren't too good in the subtle department!)
It sounded like some sort of street party was happening down the road... sounded like they were in for a big night!

A nice quick find on my way home from work this evening. Found in the first place checked. Signed log and grabbed geocoin. TFTC!
After work and before I had to fly home I found a few caches. This was the eighth one I came to. A bit easier to find than the previous bus stop cache I attempted. TFTC, Biggles.
A quick find by myself as Mr P wouldn't get out of the car because of the incident at the last cache. Men! t4tc
