Free park and ride bus services will help ease traffic congestion at this year's Anzac Day services in Tauranga and Mount Maunganui.

People wishing to attend Anzac services in Tauranga and Mount Maunganui are encouraged to take a free Bayhopper bus, thanks to Bay of Plenty Regional Council and Tauranga City Council.

The aim of the free park and ride services is to ease traffic volumes during the dawn and memorial services.

Early-risers attending the Mount Maunganui dawn service at Mount Maunganui Cenotaph on April 25 can park at Club Mount Maunganui on Kawaka St. From there, buses will transport people to Mount Drury from 5am-5.50am and return after the service.

For the Tauranga civic memorial service at Memorial Park, parking will be available in the Tauranga Boys' College carpark off Devonport Rd. Buses will leave to Memorial Park between 8am and 8.40am and return after the service.

No additional parking will be provided at Memorial Park, however the above-ground carpark at Pak'nSave on Cameron Rd will be available for people attending the Anzac Day Civic Memorial Service.

Car parking for mobility card holders only will be available outside the Queen Elizabeth Youth Centre.
