NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) has begun work this week on a second, northbound Commercial Vehicle Safety Centre (CVSC) at Rakaia in Mid-Canterbury.
State Highway 6 will remain at one lane under Stop/Go traffic controls and a 30 km/h temporary speed limit at the Whangamoa Hill slip site until the end of this week.
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) is advising road users that due to ongoing rockfall risk and poor weather forecast through the coming week, the SH73 route between the West Coast and Canterbury will continue to close overnight from 5.30pm to 8am this week, opening subject to inspection.
The SH73 route between the West Coast and Canterbury was closed around 1am this morning when heavy rain brought more rocks and material onto the highway at the western side of the rock shelter, near the Otira viaduct.
Rocks amid melting snow spilling off the SH73 Rock Shelter in the Otira Gorge caused a short highway closure after 3 pm today, says NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA).
Rocks spilling off the SH73 Rock Shelter in the Otira Gorge today after winter snow and rain in recent days means NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) has closed a section of this highway this afternoon.
A serious crash involving a truck and a car has closed SH79, the Orari Bridge, near Keen Road around 8.30 am today, says NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA).
