Old Waimakariri Bridge closed due to high river levels

The Old Waimakariri Bridge was closed on Wednesday afternoon due to high river levels. It is expected that the bridge will be reopened by the end of the week, once the water level subsides and the structure can be checked. A notice will be issued when it is reopened.

Please note this does not affect the main Waimakariri Bridge on State Highway One.
