Take extra care around the Northern Corridor Road works
Christchurch Northern Corridor
The CNC Alliance team is building the new motorway and the Four Lane Upgrade to QEII Drive. This work means more trucks on QEII Drive, Main North Road and Winters Road. The CNC Alliance drivers are very worried by the number of near misses they have had with cyclists and pedestrians, many not obeying the road rules or simply not paying attention.
STOP and LOOK at Winters Road
Trucks use the QEII Drive, Winters Road intersection up to 150 times a day. Please take extra care at this intersection, the truck drivers may not be able to see you easily. (Road Code - shared path users must give way to vehicles turning in and out of Winters Road.)
Always use the CYCLE PATH and Grimseys Rd SUBWAY
For your safety, it is strongly suggested all cyclists use the cycle path on QEII Drive and the Grimseys Road subway (as signposted) rather than cycling between the barriers on QEII Drive. This section of QEII Drive is now narrow and unsuitable for cycling and walking.
Please don't take chances near the work site or trucks
Just because you can see the truck doesn't mean the driver can see you.
