State Highway 1 to be closed eight nights at Ashley River for urgent repairs

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

The State Highway 1 bridge over North Canterbury's Ashley River will be closed over eight nights for essential repairs and strengthening work.

The NZ Transport Agency said the bridge – located just north of Waikuku and south of Amberley – would be closed from 8pm to 5am from June 22 to 26 and from June 29 to July 3.

Work would start at 8pm each night, with traffic managed using a stop/go system until 11pm. Motorists should expect short delays during this time.

The bridge will then be closed to all traffic except emergency services between 11pm and 5am.

Christmas Spirit

Allan from Rangiora

Went to New World Christmas Eve brought some groceries and as I went to pay a
very kind Lady behind me in the queue reached out and paid for my purchase.
The world still has some wonderful people in it even in these troubled times.
