The Otira Gorge/ State Highway 73 is open now, two lanes
available, and also open at nights as per usual.
Thanks to
all drivers and road users for being patient over the past
fortnight as this sizeable slip has been managed and cleaned
up by the West Coast maintenance crews with the hourly
openings regime.
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!
