    A key West Coast route is back in business

    A key West Coast route is back in business


    Omoto's State Highway 7 between Greymouth and Stillwater has reopened to one lane - after being closed for the past month because of a significant slip.

    NZTA says there'll be short delays as crews continue at the site, but new drainage is helping the job.

    KiwiRail hopes to have its rail tracks open later this week.
