SH1 detour near Kaiapoi for five nights
People heading north out of Christchurch from Sunday (November 7) after 7 pm will face a short detour near Kaiapoi.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency says work will be under way from 7pm to 6am in the Lineside Rd/Smith St overpass area for about five nights. Contractors will be installing temporary steel barrier to create a safe work site.
“The detour will take drivers to the Lineside Rd/Smith St offramp, across the overpass, and back onto the motorway using the northbound on-ramp,” journey manager Tresca Forrester says. “It will be well signposted.”
Temporary traffic lights on the overpass will be used to ensure safe access for drivers using Smith St and Lineside Rd, as well as the SH1 detour.
The southbound lane of SH1 will remain open, with a temporary speed limit of 50kmh past the work site.
This work is part of the SH1 Cam River to Tram Rd Safety Improvements Project, designed to improve the safety and resilience of the highway north of Christchurch.
