A slip that blocked part of State Highway 1 near Hundalee between Christchurch and Kaikōura has now been cleared.
The lane north was temporarily closed but traffic was able to get through as one lane remained open under stop-go management.
There was also congestion on SH1 between Christchurch and Waipara due to holiday traffic. People should expect delays and allow extra time for travel.
