A convoy of trucks is leaving Whangarei on Friday morning carrying cargo from a ship that could not unload in Auckland. Constantinos P, which was diverted to Northport because of delays in unloading, now 800 trucks trips will take the goods south, via State Highway 1 and across two sections of tricky road in the Dome Valley and the Brynderwyn Ranges. Whangarei mayor Sheryl Mai speaks to Corin Dann.
