Auckland rail disruption: Southern line now 'fully operational'
Hi neighbours, three days after a fire at a rail signal box disrupted services across Auckland train lines, one line has been reopened.
A fire in a box containing signalling switchgear struck early on Monday morning, causing significant disruption to the Southern and Onehunga lines. At 6.10am, Auckland Transport advised the signal box had been fixed and all lines were back to the normal schedule.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
