Description: This effectively shows how one can get to Lyttelton (the port, located on the steep Port Hills) from Cathedral Square (the heart of Christchurch), Christchurch (NZ's third largest city), following a direct route which heads down ONLY six streets - Colombo (Christchurch's longest), Hereford (home of many International Colleges), Manchester (the red light district), High, Ferry Road and Tunnel Road (strangely classified as a motorway) which features New Zealand's longest road tunnel.Don't be surprised if you see vehicles over 15 years old continually appearing in this vid - New Zealander's generally keep their cars on the road far longer than other countries!!!Soundtrack is Rogue Traders - "World go round" (2005)

This route is way cool. You get to thrash the 100km zone from 2:55 instead of joining up at 3:12.

Hi What happened to the railway tunnel? I can remember having to walk back through it in the late 50s when we had missed last bus.All the best Peter

That was fun, thanks. I used to live in ChCh and took the bus to Lyttelton a few times. Had forgotten all about it. The time lapsing was a good idea, and the song's tempo fit well. Fun. Thanks again.
