The closures are needed to install a new $29 million fire protection system in the tunnel.
The tunnel will open to traffic for 10 minutes on the hour, 11pm to 4am for all three closures. Outside those times, only emergency vehicles will be allowed access.
The three nights of closures are the first in a series of night closures in coming months to enable the fire protection system to be safely installed and tested.
Commuters can also travel to Christchurch via Cashmere and Dyers Pass Road, a longer route than the tunnel. Heavy vehicle drivers can take Gebbies Pass route as an alternative.
A 90-day schedule for single and full-lane closures is updated monthly and can be viewed here.
Running in parallel with work on the fire protection system is the installation of wastewater pipes through to Lyttelton, part of a Christchurch City Council project to future-proof wastewater services in Lyttelton and the surrounding areas. Find out more about this project here.
