Waimakariri Gorge Bridge Update and daytime closure

The Team from Waimakariri District Council

The guardrail on the southern side of the bridge is complete but cold conditions have slowed progress on the remaining section.

We anticipate a further 10 days will be required before we can shift focus to removing scaffolding and disestablishing the site.


Because work is continuing on the guardrail there will still be short 10 minute closures during the daytime. However, the bridge is open at night without closures.

The slower progress has allowed the completion of other maintenance work to take place - such as cleaning and repairs to take place under the bridge.

We thank you for your patience.
