Ten-metre sinkhole opens up in Taupō

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A large sinkhole that has opened up on Arrowsmith Avenue after a water main broke could take weeks to fix. Emergency services were called and found water pouring down the gully and a significant part of the road washed out.

Up to 12 engineers and council staff are on site today to assess the damage left by the hole, which the council said was 10 metres by 8 metres and up to 8 metres deep.
