    Road access from Dunedin to Otago Peninsula has been restored

    Road access from Dunedin to Otago Peninsula has been restored


    The Dunedin City Council says after a mammoth effort, Portobello Road and Harington Point Road have reopened.

    Motorists are being asked to take care as there's still debris and mud on the roads - especially around MacAndrew Bay.
