Freight services are operating across New Zealand today, with minor localised disruptions possible. Customers should particularly allow for some additional transit time on freight moving into Taranaki from the north, while unsettled weather could cause short-notice impacts on some regional routes.
Taranaki: Overnight works through the Awakino Gorge are affecting some freight movements into New Plymouth from northern regions. Some morning deliveries may consequently take longer than usual.
Weather: Showers, low-level snow in parts of the lower South Island, and possible squally thunderstorms or hail may cause isolated regional delays today.
There is no national or regional public holiday today, so normal Friday pickup and delivery schedules apply, subject to individual carrier and local network conditions.
Overall, the freight network remains operational. Customers with time-sensitive freight should continue to allow some contingency and check official NZTA and MetService updates where weather or road conditions may affect their route.
