Slumping West Coast road remains closed, with tourist train blocked
A slip near Greymouth has caused road and rail closures and raised concerns about a downturn in business.
The active slip between Greymouth and Stillwater at Omoto has been moving since mid August but heavy rain on Thursday forced the closure of a section of State Highway 7, the main road linking Reefton and Greymouth, and the rail line until at least Tuesday.
KiwiRail has been stopping the TranzAlpine at Arthur's Pass and offering buses for people wanting to continue on to the West Coast.
