South Canterbury motorists should expect delays on State Highway 1 south of Makikihi tonight, which will close to recover a truck.
Emergency services were alerted to the crash, between Rodgers Road and Frederick Street, about 10.40am today. No other vehicles were involved and nobody was injured.
The highway will close between 7pm and 10pm while cranes recover the truck and trailer unit.
Diversions will be in place, and motorists should factor additional travel times into their journey.
