Anastasia Hedge: North Canterbury roads remain difficult

Christchurch chief reporter Anastasia Hedge joins Rachel Smalley to give an update on the state of the roads in North Canterbury.

State Highway 1 between Cheviot and Seddon - CLOSED due to earthquake damage.
State Highway 6 Rai Valley to Renwick - OPEN
State Highway 7 between Waipara to Springs Junction - OPEN (Lewis Pass) down to one lane in places.
State Highway 7A between Tekoa Range and Hanmer Springs is to OPEN at 7am to light vehicles - no towing vehicles.
State Highway 73 between Christchurch and the West Coast open (some cracking in road and temporary speed limits in places.)
Picton, Blenheim, and Nelson are all accessible from the south via State Highway 7 (Lewis Pass) but please note this will add about 90 minutes to 2 hours additional journey time.
