Waikato Police remind motorists to be patient
Waikato Police are already noticing significant congestion on roads across the district as people head away for the long weekend, prompting a reminder to people to be extra patient.
“We’re already seeing southbound traffic building up south of Cambridge as people get away for the long weekend," says Senior Sergeant Andrew O'Reilly.
"Traffic though Waitakaruru and up to the Kopu bridge is also likely to become heavily congested.
"If you’re considering travelling this afternoon, please consider that roads are already very busy, and travel times will be longer.”

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
