South Coast swell
A big swell on the South Coast is causing large waves to crash onto the road between Breaker Bay and Owhiro Bay.
The section of Breaker Bay Road and Moa Point Road between Mantell St (Seatoun) and Cochrane St (Lyall Bay) and the Esplanade between Owhiro Bay, Island Bay and Houghton Bay is now closed.
Please avoid the entire South Coast and stay safe at home in your bubble.
Police and contractor are working to keep the area safe and a clean-up crew will remove the debris when the tide recedes.
