Overnight delays of up to 50 minutes at Hurunui Bridge on SH1
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency has essential maintenance work to do on the single lane Hurunui River Bridge, starting Sunday night, November 20.
Drivers who use SH1 between Picton and Christchurch may need to build some extra time into their journeys over up to 15 nights of closure, Waka Kotahi says.
The work on the bridge’s deck and joints will close the bridge for up to 50 minutes at a time, 7pm to 6am. The schedule is Sunday to Thursday, weather dependent, from November 20 to Thursday night, December 8, with 10-minute openings at the top of each hour.
The bridge is between Greta Valley and Cheviot on SH1, North Canterbury and is the key route for freight and the inter-island ferries.
“People who are using the route overnight to make the Picton Ferry may need to factor in delays of up to 50 minutes in their schedules,” Waka Kotahi network manager Jessica McFarlane says.
Emergency vehicles will be accommodated at all times.
The Hurunui River Bridge is south of Cheviot on SH1, north of Greta Valley.
