Overnight rain on Thursday caused the closure of three roads in the Whanganui district, one of which has re-opened.
A large slip closed the Whanganui River Road north of Koriniti (Marshalls Bluff), but that has now been cleared although road users are urged to take care when driving it.
CreekRd is temporarily closed and is expected to re-open at about 10am after a small slip is cleared.
Meanwhile, Mangamahu Rd is expected to be closed most of the day following a large slip that is blocking both lanes at Aranui Bluff about 10km north of Mangamahu.
Whanganui District Council will keep the public updated as work progresses.
