Numerous train services on Auckland’s Southern, Eastern, Western and Onehunga lines have been cancelled due to a problem with the tracks.
Shortly after 6am, Auckland Transport (AT) said all Eastern and Southern line services were currently cancelled between Ōtāhuhu and Briotmart.
Western line and Onehunga line services were also cancelled until further notice.
AT said the cancellations were due to a “KiwiRail track infrastructure problem”.

It urged commuters to use the AT mobile app for more information and live updates.
Earlier this week a track checking train was broken in Auckland, causing significant delays to train services in Wellington as tracks couldn’t be checked.
Due to “unforeseen technical issues” with the track evaluation car, KiwiRail could not do the necessary inspections on the Kāpiti Line at the start of May when it was due.
