Lyttelton Port's Cashin Quay Two, which was badly damaged in the February 2011 earthquake, is being rebuilt in stages.
Currently 57 metres long, its entire 230-metre-long wharf is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
Lyttelton Port chief executive Peter Davie said the wharf, which is part of a long-term plan, is a step towards ensuring the port is able to support the Christchurch earthquake recovery.
