Train cancellations, delays, as track fault closes Britomart station
Heads up central Aucklanders!
A track fault has closed Auckland’s Britomart train station, disrupting travel.
Auckland Transport said the fault occurred early on Thursday morning, and it alerted public transport users at 5.45am to the disruptions.
Delays and cancellations are expected as the station is “temporarily closed” due to the issue.
All services that head to Britomart would be stopping at Newmarket.
Replacement services are operating between the two stations.
As of 9am, the station remained closed.
“The Onehunga line is cancelled between Britomart and Penrose,” AT said.
“Rail replacement buses are running between Newmarket and Britomart.”

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
