Metlink train services in Hutt Valley and Wairarapa suspended - have you been affected?
About 6000 commuters will struggle to get to work on Thursday after Hutt Valley train services were suspended following damage to the tracks that occurred during maintenance.
Those travelling on the Wairarapa services will also be delayed as Metlink awaits clearance for the services to run. Melling services are still running.
The damage to the track and signalling machinery was caused by an excavator working on scheduled maintenance overnight. The excavator derailed near Taita, closing the track. Keep up to date here

-
0% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
0% ... It is complicated
