From Chorus:
Significant rainfall and severe winds continue to cause extensive power outages, localised flooding and road closures due to debris and landslides impacting people in Northland, Auckland, the Coromandel and other upper North Island regions.
Forecasted weather could cause further flooding, slips and damage that may further impact Chorus' services throughout the week. We will continue to assess and monitor our network and carry out remedial activities where possible.
Our core network remains intact, however it is impacted by localised power outages. We are expecting delays for restoration in these areas due to this increase in fault volume, disrupted power and road access. Our service companies will update their schedules to make more restoration slots available in weather affected areas from Wednesday (after assessment of the workload and full impact).
