Several vehicles are reportedly stuck on the Desert Road (State Highway 1) due to snowfall in the area.

Emergency services have this evening closed the road due to the conditions.

A police spokesperson says there are no immediate safety concerns at this stage.

However, Newstalk ZB suggest a snow plough is on its way to the affected area and contractors are also in attendance.

Motorists are advised to delay their travel plans if at all possible.

The authorities are advising anyone that needs to head north or south to travel via Napier or New Plymouth.
