Another crash on the Milford Road ffs. How many times do we have to say slow down on that stretch? Hope the injured are okay though.

Wife and I were meant to be heading down that way today for a holiday. Now we're stuck in Te Anau with no eta on when it'll clear. Typical.

Tom Harris2026-07-01T02:13:25.000Z

mate, stuck in Te Anau too. Pub's getting busy haha.

Was just about to say, that road is dodgy as in the wet. Tourists don't get it eh.

James O’Brien2026-07-01T01:54:25.000Z

common problem. Slow down people!

Luca Reid2026-07-01T01:58:25.000Z

Poor people hope all recover quickly.

Bet it's some rental driver who couldn't handle a corner. Seen it a hundred times.

Mia Carter2026-07-01T02:30:25.000Z

nah seen it too many times. Rental cars with bald tyres too sometimes.

it's always the same story. Angers me.

Roads here are a joke, one crash and the whole region shuts down. Need a proper bypass or something.

Eva Anderson2026-07-01T02:31:25.000Z

Anyone know how long the road will be closed? Got friends visiting Milford next week looks like.

Eva Anderson2026-07-01T03:05:25.000Z

thanks that's helpful.

James O’Brien2026-07-01T02:48:25.000Z

Just glad no one died. Roads are dangerous enough without idiots speeding.

NZTA gonna do anything about this road? Or just keep putting up signs?

Luca Reid2026-07-01T03:50:25.000Z

true, more investment needed. Safety first.

Mia Carter2026-07-01T03:30:25.000Z

lol good luck with that, they can't even fix potholes in Auckland

Reese Morgan2026-07-01T04:04:25.000Z

stuffed, we pay enough tax for better roads.
