Waka Kotahi said Wellington's Terrace Tunnel is closed to traffic heading southbound, and warned commuters to "expect delays". Northbound lanes near the tunnel are partially blocked and moving slowly.

It's been said that a protester has glued their hands to the road and is needing assistance to be removed.

"Police advise motorists to avoid the area and expect delays."

Handy man-or woman needed

Michael from Tawa

We moved into out new house with our family.
Big as laundry but big as washing machine won't fit.

We're not keen on a front loader but rather change the laundry.

We'd be keen on someone who can help us modify the bench and maybe connect the machine to the hot water tap too.
