The torrential rain in Auckland yesterday caused major disruptions to the public transport network and left many commuters stranded in the rain for hours.
Throughout the day, train, ferry and bus services were cancelled, delayed and detoured around Auckland. Ten roads are still closed, a further 11 have lane closures.
Many of the closures are in the north part of the city and rodney district. Southern and Western Line trains are running.
