Civil Defence urged tourists to keep off the roads, saying large volumes of school holiday traffic was putting people’s lives at risk. Thames-Coromandel contractors out on the roads said they were frustrated to see heavy traffic in the rain, despite warnings to avoid travel. In Northland there were warnings of surface flooding and hazardous driving conditions. “The entire Coromandel is getting battered and everyone needs to heed the warnings, stay off the roads and sit this out,” Civil Defence controller Garry Towler said. “It is going to get worse before things improve and high tide will undoubtedly bring more closures so let’s not put our contractors at further risk.” A heavy rain watch was in force for the Coromandel Peninsula, with MetService warning of peak rainfall rates of up to 25mm/h. The council had urged anyone planning to drive around the Coromandel region to delay their trip. “If you have plans to travel today, please reconsider.
