Trains will not run on the Eastern line between Britomart and Ōtāhuhu for two weeks as KiwiRail finishes work to replace worn rail on the passenger and freight line.

Workers installed a new scissor track crossing at the eastern end of the Britomart tunnel and replaced worn-out rail between Newmarket and the city.

A person was struck by a train at the Kingsland Train Station in New Zealand, police said in a news release.
