These include Vuniyasi, Nadi Town and the Sabeto flats.

The Kings Road is also open to traffic from Lautoka to Nabulini in Naitasiri.

However, there is only one lane access at Saivou due to a landslip.

Contractors are working to remove the slip material today to enable two-lane access.

Other areas that were previously inaccessible yesterday such as Wailailai, Tavua to Korovou and Barotu are now open.

FRA is urging motorists to drive with care.
