Poll: Do you think the six-week South Waikato closure is needed?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

www.waikatotimes.co.nz...
|The country’s main north/south artery is set to be cut south of Tokoroa for six weeks|, sparking disbelief from the truckies and workers using it daily and now facing long detours.

They say they don’t understand why State Highway 1 between Tokoroa and Kinleith has to be closed, and felt proposed detours were unsuitable to handle the tens of thousands of extra vehicles using them during the closure.
