Update on the local roads and bridges in Westland
This is the current status of the local roads and
bridges in Westland following the storm event of last week.
• The current priority is to gain access to the
bridges between Hans Bay and Styx as the road is currently
inaccessible and the bridges have not been
assessed.
• There is temporary access on Dorothy Falls
Road to farmland and lodge via Styx.
• Waiho Flat,
South of Franz Josef is emergency access only. Contractors
are coming up from Otago on Tuesday 2 April to assist with
the clean up.
• Arahura Valley roads still closed:
Humphries Gully to German Road, and including Milltown
Road.
