Fulton Hogan are building the first stage of the cycleway and have begun building the section that runs along Suva St and Ballantyne Ave.

That work will involve some major changes to the way that Elizabeth St functions.
Cul-de-sacs will be created at both the Wainui St end of Elizabeth St and the Clarence St end of Elizabeth St. Elizabeth St will also be realigned at its intersection with Division St.
The south express is part of the network of major cycleways that Christchurch City Council is building.
The 15km route will run from Templeton, on the western edge of Christchurch, through the suburbs of Hornby, Sockburn and Middleton, where it will connect to the nor’west arc cycleway, which is currently under construction.
It will then go through Riccarton, where it will link into the soon-to-be-constructed northern line cycleway and the shared paths in South Hagley Park.
