Waimakariri Gorge Bridge Update and daytime closure
Following the successful sealing of the Waimakariri Gorge Bridge on Thursday 16 May the bridge is now open at night.
Attention now turns to the installation of the guardrail which will require short 10 minute closures during the daytime.
We had anticipated this to be complete by Friday 31 May but the pouring of the concrete beams has been slower than expected and will require another two weeks to complete.
Expect daytime short 10m closures until mid-June.
However, the slower progress has allowed the completion of other maintenance work to take place. We thank you for your continued patience.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦
Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.
Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.
So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
-
31.5% Yes!
-
68.5% No thank you.
