Closure Update - March 4, 2026
Kia ora koutou, We know many of you are eager to get back onto the tracks at Te Ahu Pātiki.They remain closed, and will do so for several more weeks. The damage caused by recent weather is significant. There are large slips, unstable ground and sections that require full rebuilds. Heavy machinery, including diggers, will be operating on site as this work gets underway. Your safety, and the safety of those carrying out repairs , is our priority. Please respect all closures and do not attempt to access the tracks during this time. We truly appreciate your patience. This mahi will ensure the tracks are restored properly and safely for the long term. We will continue to keep you updated.
Ngā mihi.
