Workers were evacuated from an underground station being built as part of Auckland’s City Rail Link when a forklift caught on fire this morning.
The fire, at the Te Waihorotiu station in central Auckland, occurred about 10.20am and was quickly extinguished, a spokesman for the project said.
The station was filled with smoke and workers were evacuated, he said.
Several fire appliances attended and an all-clear was given for workers to return to work.
No one was injured in the incident.
