A significant rainfall event on 26th March destroyed the Fox Glacier North Access Road – the only ground access to Fox Glacier, and this road is not intending to be reinstated in the short term. The Fox South Side Road, which leads to a Glacier viewpoint, was also seriously damaged so that walking access only is available. The current walking access is in very close proximity to the unstable and eroded landslips which breach the road. Visitors to Fox Glacier are relying on the South Road as access to a Glacier view, and thus a safe walking/cycletrack must be provided in time for the 2019 Summer season to ensure there are no visitor safety incidents related to the unstable slips.
