Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency is urging motorists to avoid travel in the area if possible, as the combination of evening peak traffic and continued southbound closures on State Highway 2 is causing significant delays on both SH2 and SH29.
SH2 remains closed southbound between Waihi Road off-ramp and Takatimu Drive this morning, following a fatal Police firearms incident last night. Motorists are advised to consider alternate routes if possible.

Plan ahead for a safe, enjoyable journey this summer. Keep up to date with:
