    Great video!
    This shows really clearly how much better the new road is than the old one!

    Great video Geoff. Shows you the power of nature that the earthquake gave us the land that the road is built on.

    KiaOra Geoff. You're one of my absolute favourite camera persons for earthquake & volcano related content - You're a legend. (Mt Ruapehu eruption + lahars etc) World famous in New Zealand. Latest drone fly over of Te Puia Whakaari White Island is totally epic too.👌🏼

    the quake did road users a favor there.a modern highway now instead of a narrow winding track.thanks Geoff for the video.

      It was a standard width highway before, hardly a 'track', but I agree it is a lot better now.

    That road looks like it has not been used for quite a while. Where it narrows, it appears to be more of a drainage channel.

    Was that the stream channel, where they had to maintain access for seals, or something?

    At 2:17 is that a couple of dead goats? Haha I've seen a few on the roadside around there

      Well spotted!! The white ones definitely an animal, and way more likely goat than sheep. I'm not so sure about the black one.
