⚠️ HEAVY SWELL REGIONAL UPDATE ⚠️

UPDATE 3:15 pm:

NZTA/Waka Kotahi have advised with sea conditions easing, the shared path between Ngauranga and Petone is now OPEN.

Users should still take care on the route while bad weather and strong winds persist.

--------

Tuesday 09 June 10.40am

A significant southerly swell is forecast to impact the Wellington and the Wairarapa coast today.

🌊 Waves of 8-9 metres are expected along Wellington’s south coast, with larger waves of 9.5–10.5 metres forecast for parts of the Wairarapa coast.

*WAIRARAPA COAST*
We are also advising people to avoid coastal roads around Wairarapa – particularly South Wairarapa Lake Ferry, Ngawi and north with Mataikona, Castlepoint, Whakataki and Riversdale Beach.

Cape Palliser Road is CLOSED from the Hurupi Stream bridge until further notice. It’s likely that the closure will remain in place until at least Wednesday 10 June.

Coastal communities are encouraged to stay up to date with news across Tuesday, and take action if they believe they are at risk.

*NGAURANGA TO PETONE SH2*
Due to heavy swells, the shared path between Ngauranga and Petone (Te Ara Tupua) is currently CLOSED. State Highway 2 between Petone and Ngauranga remains fully OPEN.

*REGIONAL TRANSPORT*
🚊 Rail services remain operating between Ngauranga and Petone.

🛳️ The east by west ferry services are suspended until at least 2pm today.

🚎 Road closures across the Wellington south coast mean delays are likely on some bus services.

🚘 Most coastal roads are closed and will remain closed until the area is deemed safe.

⛴ Interisland ferries have been cancelled.
