Slip on Great North Road blocks lanes
A slip at 3098 Great North Road outside Cambridge Clothing has reduced traffic to one lane each way between Titirangi Road and Totara Ave.
A section of footpath subsided exposing phone and gas lines. United Networks and Telecom were advised in the early hours of this morning and repairs are in progress.
A sewer line was broken, however there was no contamination of a nearby stream and two pumps worked through the night and continue to remove wastewater from the line.
The council asks drivers to please avoid the area if possible.
Further updates will be provided as they become available.
