Planning to travel between Picton and Christchurch?
State Highway 1 (SH1) north of Kaikōura is now open to daytime traffic. This means you have two options for travel between Picton and Christchurch: SH1, where two sections remain closed at night as a safety precaution, or the alternate route (via state highways 63, 6, 65 and 7 through Lewis Pass) which is open 24/7.
Make sure you allow enough time for your journey, whichever route you choose. For real-time travel information visit www.nzta.govt.nz/p2c or call 0800 4 HIGHWAYS (0800 44 44 49).

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏
The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?
