Photo: Allied Press filesNorth Canterbury drivers can expect significant delays during their morning commute to Christchurch over the next month for road resurfacing. "Resurfacing work will start on the existing southbound lanes, affecting the morning flows, followed by the northbound lanes. "Once the bridge lanes are complete, the surfacing crews will move to the SH1 lanes north and south of the Waimakariri Bridge. The resurfacing work will be complete before opening of the new Christchurch Northern Corridor motorway including the new carpool lane from Tram Road in December." Especially during the morning peak, Tram Road users should also expect delays at the Tram Road and Main North Road intersection as we will be using Stop/Go controls," he said.
