Ohakune without tap water for at least another day
Ohakune will be without tap water until Tuesday night, after council this afternoon confirmed the outage affecting the central North Island town would last longer than hoped. It was expected the supply would resume on Monday evening, but a fix has proven more complicated than expected. This means eateries and schools will spend another day with their doors closed. Field Correspondent Jimmy Ellingham reports from Ohakune.
