Waimakariri Gorge Bridge Update and daytime closure
Following the successful sealing of the Waimakariri Gorge Bridge on Thursday 16 May the bridge is now open at night.
Attention now turns to the installation of the guardrail which will require short 10 minute closures during the daytime.
We had anticipated this to be complete by Friday 31 May but the pouring of the concrete beams has been slower than expected and will require another two weeks to complete.
Expect daytime short 10m closures until mid-June.
However, the slower progress has allowed the completion of other maintenance work to take place. We thank you for your continued patience.
