A police operation in Ōtara, South Auckland is disrupting some bus services this morning.

Police said they were at an address on Hills Road in the suburb for a search warrant. They said there was no risk to the public.

"A number of police are at the Hills Road address as our enquiries continue," they said in a statement.

But Auckland Transport (AT) said Hills Road was closed in both directions from Hamill Road to Johnstones Road due to a police operation.

This would cause some disruptions to bus services, especially bus route 31.

AT suggested people check their journey planner.
