Facilities Management Surveyors will be conducting visual condition assessments of all culverts across both Ilam and Dovedale Campuses between Tuesday 28th of October and Friday 14th November.

Culverts are tunnels or pipes that channel water under roads or paths to prevent flooding and protect infrastructure.

Cyclists and pedestrians should remain alert for surveyors working on or near culverts, as they may be focused on their inspections.

Surveyors will ensure that individuals are not identifiable in any photographs taken.

Please direct any enquiries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we carry out these important assessments.
