	Description:		Surprise maintenance closures are heading down the tracks for Auckland train passengers and the disruption to commuters will last years. Rock foundations under several lines around the city need to be removed and rebuilt so they can cope with more trains on the lines when the network hooks into the City Rail Link, hopefully by the end of 2024. That means rolling months long closures on the Onehunga and Southern line, the Eastern Line, between Ōtāhuhu and Britomart and the Southern line, Pukekohe to Papakura. Commuters will be offered replacement buses. Auckland Transport's Darek Koper joined Lisa Owen.
