The southbound lane on State Highway 1 at Pukerua Bay is closed due to a slip.
Contractors and Police are working to clear the slip as quickly as possible.
Light traffic will be diverted to Paekakariki Hill Road. Heavy traffic will be stopped at Fisherman’s Table and let through as possible.
Delays are expected and Police ask drivers to be patient during this time. Please delay your travel if possible or take an alternate route.
It is possible the northbound lane may also need to be closed at Pukerua Bay to clear the slip. A further release will be issued if this is the case.
