Auckland trains suspended

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Auckland's train network is down and no trains are currently operating. Warnings are in place due to possible toxic smoke after a recent fire.

What you need to know:
- A large fire which broke out in the Auckland suburb of Favona overnight has been contained.
- Fire is causing a large plume of toxic smoke and South Auckland residents were advised to close all windows and doors and wear a mask as a precaution. The wind has now changed and Greenlane, Ellerslie, Mt Wellington and Penrose are also affected.
- King's College in Ōtāhuhu is closed today due to the smoke.
- Auckland’s train network is completely down with KiwiRail asked to evacuate its control centre.

You can keep up to date with the status of the trains on the Auckland Transport website.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
