About 4pm, Auckland Transport warned passengers of delays and cancellations to train services because of a track fault near Britomart.

"Services operating at reduced frequency,'' AT said.

Auckland Transport said just after 5pm that recovery work was in progress, but that delays and cancellations were still to be expected as services resume.
