Dyers Pass Road closed, from Takahe to Governors Bay Road

Friday 21 June 2013

Dyers Pass Road closed, from Takahe to Governors Bay Road

Heavy snowfall has forced the closure of Dyers Pass Road closed, from
the Sign of the Takahe to Governors Bay Road.

Christchurch City Council teams are currently assisting motorists stuck
on the route, and are clearing the snow.

Christchurch is still in for a couple of days of cold weather and sleety
rain which could cause more flooding.

We ask all road users to slow down, drive with care, and be especially
careful when driving through flooded areas, as the wakes and waves
caused by vehicles can cause further flooding to already at-risk
properties.

Further updates will follow this morning.
