SH1 Mangamuka Gorge and SH10 Kaeo closed

Annette Lambly-Robinson Reporter from Whangārei Leader

In case you are travelling North!!

The Transport Agency is advising motorists that the Mangamuka Gorge State Highway 1 south of Kaitaia is currently closed due to a slip.

Contractors are now working to clear the slip and are hoping to get one lane open to traffic later this afternoon.

The usual detour route of State Highway 10 through Kaeo is also closed due to flooding.

High tide is due at 9am and it’s hoped water levels will then start receding.

The Transport Agency is advising people to travel only if they really need to in the area and expect delays.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
