The Lyttelton road tunnel links the New Zealand city of Christchurch and its seaport Lyttelton. It opened in 1964 and carries just over 10000 vehicles/day. While the tunnel itself was not closed for long after the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake the Heathcote tunnel canopy has been demolished and the Tunnel Control Building that has a Category I heritage classification by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust has suffered significant damage.
