Cycleway work prompts changes to Elizabeth St
Elizabeth St in Riccarton will soon undergo major changes in the as work progresses on the city end of the new south express cycleway.
Fulton Hogan are building the first stage of the cycleway and have begun building the section that runs along Suva St and Ballantyne Ave.
Shortly they will begin work on the section that runs along Elizabeth St between Wainui St and Deans 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.
