Network Update | South Island Weather Impacts

7 July 2026 | 9.30 am

Ongoing severe weather across the South Island continues to impact our network, with flooding, snow, ice, strong winds and road closures affecting several key routes.

As a result, freight movements within the South Island and services connecting the South and North Islands are likely to experience delays.

Our teams are actively monitoring conditions and taking all possible steps to minimise disruption while maintaining the safety of our people and operations.

We appreciate your understanding during this time and will continue to provide updates as further information becomes available.
