Latest update from Civil Defence re Port Hills Fires
Hi guys,
I'll try and get these through for you as and when they arrive in the newsroom - then you're getting the information straight from the source. If you need anything more, or have anything you think we should be following up, please feel free to get in touch. Kia kaha.
Cordon access
Cordon access at Kennedys Bush Road and Hoon Hay Valley Road is for residents only. There is no access for the general public at this point in time. The cordons will remain controlled and residents must present photo ID (drivers licence or passport) at the cordon point. Access for residents is for reoccupation of their homes. Residents need to be aware that the fire is still active so they need to be prepared to evacuate their homes at short notice if the situation changes.
We will update changes to the cordons for the public in future updates.
Please note this means there is no access to the recreational areas, including the tracks, off Kennedys Bush Road.
