This is to facilitate the construction of the Curletts interchange as part of the Christchurch Southern Motorway Project.
A clearly marked detour via Lunns Rd/ Annex Rd/ Birmingham Dr/ Wrights Rd/ Lincoln Rd and Barrington St will be in place during the closures.

Application forms
If you are planning an activity that will block or interrupt road traffic or pedestrians on a public street, you must obtain consent from Council for a temporary road closure. Temporary road closures can be caused by:
- works such as construction, utility repairs, excavations, road resurfacing
- events such as road races, street parties, or parades
