The left northbound lane on Johns Rd, just past the Harewood Rd roundabout, was closed following the crash about 11.30am on Tuesday.
The scene was cleared by about 12.30pm - and the road is open.
"The crash is now clear of the road and all lanes of traffic are available," a Transport for Christchurch spokesperson said.
"Orion will be back later at some point to replace the removed lighting pole."
