A few roads in the Central and Eastern Divisions are closed due to flooding from recent heavy rainfall.

The Fiji Roads Authority says Vatuwaqa Crossing along Serea Back Road and Waima Crossing along Nairukuruku Road in Naitasiri are closed.

Waioli Crossing along Vuisiga Lutu Road in Naitasiri is only accessible to trucks and 4x4 vehicles while Vatulili Crossing is closed.

Meanwhile, the Nadi Weather Office says the rainy weather is being brought by a moist Easterly wind flow prevailing over Fiji.
