Roading woes continue to hamper Te Tai Rāwhiti

From Morning Report, 7:40 am on 4 October 2023

Tiniroto residents in Te Tai Rāwhiti just can't get a break from roading woes. 

A massive landslide has shunted a section of the rural Tiniroto Road tens-of-metres off course, cutting off dozens of residents in the area, and forcing others to take even longer detours.

Cyclone Gabrielle badly damaged roads throughout the region, and despite temporary measures to reopen some of them, recent heavy rain is taking a toll on the fragile land and infrastructure. 

Hangaroa resident who lives on Tiniroto Road Alex Campbell spoke to Corin Dann.
