Roadworks update: closures around Ilam campus

18 June 2025

From Wednesday 18 June, Dormer Construction will begin work at the Creyke/Ilam/Maidstone intersection as part of the Christchurch City Council Riccarton–Ilam Wastewater System upgrade. 

HOW TO APPLY

Key impacts:

  • No access to Ilam Road northbound through the intersection from Creyke or Maidstone Rd

  • Access Ilam Rd southbound from Creyke or Maidstone Rd

  • One-way Creyke Road (west)

 

These works are expected to take approximately one month.

 

Following this, work will continue along Maidstone Road between Ilam Road and Waimairi Road until mid-2026:

  • One-way traffic on Maidstone Road (westbound only).

  • On-street parking will be reduced as work progresses. 

Works on Clyde Road are nearly complete, but one-way traffic restrictions remain in place.

 
Additional information:

  • Traffic management will include shoulder and lane closures, one-way systems, and reduced on-street parking.

  • Detours will be signposted for eastbound traffic.

  • A 30 km/h speed limit will apply in work zones—please drive with care. 

  • Any bus route changes will be signposted. Visit www.metroinfo.co.nz for the latest information.

  • UC parking is still available at the Dovedale site—students are encouraged to make use of this while other parking options are limited.
