Snow and ice have made
driving conditions throughout the lower South Island
difficult with several state highways being closed.
Motorists are advised to ensure that they are able to
complete their journey before leaving, and drive to the
conditions.
Information on road closures and conditions is
available from the AA and New Zealand Transport Agency
websites.
If you're using Scoop for work, your organisation needs to pay a small license fee with Scoop Pro. We think that's fair, because your organisation is benefiting from using our news resources. In return, we'll also give your team access to pro news tools and keep Scoop free for personal use, because public access to news is important!
