Dear Customer,

Unfortunately S.H 2 between Napier and Wairoa has been closed all morning due to a slip at Putorino. The latest update states the road remains closed.

Due to the time and the distance left to travel, we have no option but to turn the truck around and head back to Napier. All freight for the Wairoa/Gisborne area will now be remanifested and delivered tomorrow. Please advise your customers.
