State Highway 1 to remain closed at crash scene

State Highway 1 to remain closed at crash scene - Puhoi - Waitemata

September 27

Following the crash early this morning of a milk tanker on State Highway 1 near Puhoi, the road will remain closed until further notice. Milk fat which spilled onto the road when the truck overturned has solidified and formed a slippery surface, which is proving very difficult to remove. All lanes are closed and contractors are working to make the road safe for traffic a soon as possible.

At this stage it is impossible to say when the road will re-open. Diversions remain in place, and drivers are asked to be patient.
