Road and bridge closures causing chaos in Canterbury

From Nine To Noon, 11:07 am on 1 June 2021

RNZ reporter Conan Young got trapped on the south side of the Ashburton River earlier this morning, shortly after it was closed due to significant slumping on the northern side of the bridge.

Engineers are on the way to inspect the bridge but it is expected to be closed at least for days.

Conan speaks to Kathryn from Pudding Hill.
