Summary
State Highway One south of Kaikōura is back open after major flooding washed out sections — a huge relief after evacuations and a state of emergency. But don’t rush: expect 20-30 minute delays as crews work to restore safety, especially near Hawkswood where one lane will stay closed for weeks. The old detour is still open but adds hours — so getting SH1 back is a major win. Watch for more slips as rain lingers, and Inland Kaikōura Road remains closed.
