A vegetation fire caused delays on State Highway 77 in central Canterbury this morning, with stop/go traffic management in place near the intersection with Davies Road between Glentunnel and Windwhistle.
Fire and Emergency New Zealand crews attended the blaze on Wairiri Road, with a New Zealand Transport Agency spokesman asking motorists to take care and expect delays.
The highway has since fully reopened, though road users are asked to continue travelling through the area with care.
