3pm Tuesday 7 September 2010

Most of the CBD is back to normal, with businesses and services running
as usual. Buildings throughout most of the Central City are safe and in
working order.

We encourage people to resume day-to-day activities in this area as
Christchurch gets back to normal after the earthquake.

The CBD cordon remains in place in the small area bounded by Worcester
Street, St Asaph Street, Colombo Street and Madras Street.

Access to the cordon is available to people working within the cordon in
buildings that have received a green, all-clear sticker. Also for
property/business owners within the cordon who need to assess damage to
their buildings.

People wishing to enter the cordon area should approach police posted at
the cordon.

Christchurch City Council call centre on Ph 941 8999.
