The Authority also clarified that no Waka Fine buses were affected, disspelling rumours that suggested some of the Waka Fine buses were involved in the fire.
They said that the National Fire Force responded quickly and put out the fire before it could spread to other buses and facilities at the depot. It added that no casualties have so far been reported.
