Traffic delays end of this week
Sealing work north of Dunedin may cause delays end of this week
Road crews will be sealing a number of sites on State Highway 1 north of Dunedin, and in North Otago at Herbert and Pukeuri on Thursday and Friday this week. The work will take place from 7 am to 7 pm, unless it rains.
