Outages II

Remind me how many $M was spent on the last road closure into Northland?

30mm of rain overnight, only recently opened after a never-ending closure and the Brynderwyns are closed yet again by slips on SH1.  The alternative northward route is also closed by a slip.

Mr Simeon Brown, this infrastructure is long overdue for a four-laned fix.  Set the D9's to 15 degree incline and proceed apace toward the summit and down the other side.  A tunnel would be even better to extend the 'holiday highway'.

Meanwhile, further north, the Mangamukas remain closed despite $160M+ being poured into the supposed fix.  Also this piece of infrastructure has the dubious honour of being closed more often than being open in the past five years.
