SH6 flood repairs: ‘It’s going to be a hard seven weeks’
Paula Kerslake’s cafe sits, as of Tuesday, at the start of a massive cul-de-sac.
Whereas, on Monday, it sat on one of the busiest roads at the top of the South Island.
As such, the Pelorus Bridge Cafe will be doing things a little differently for the next seven weeks, as State Highway 6 is closed to fast-track flood repair work.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency has closed SH6 between Hira and Ronga Rd, near Rai Valley, from Tuesday, November 1 to Sunday, December 18 to make emergency repairs caused by the August floods.
