Mandeville Village

Andrew from Swannanoa - Ohoka

Mid last year the council heard from the developer that they could develop the Mandeville Village without need of the contentious Tram Road accesses. As the resource consent was granted non-binding it was agreed the developer could legally proceed and so granted them a building consent - with access via the Mandeville Road entrance.

Towards the end of the year something changed - and an 80kph zone for Tram Road was recommended and approved and the developer applied for a new Tram Road accesses resource consent (with a plan that didn’t comply with the District Plan - to which both parties had previously agreed).

What happened to cause everyone involved to suddenly change their mind back again?

Poll: Pedestrian access is being extended to the Ōtakaro Avon River - good idea?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Pedestrian access from one of Christchurch’s favourite streets is being extended all the way to the Ōtakaro Avon River. This new 12m-wide pathway will give you a direct, easy route from the street to the river promenade ... perfect for a stroll, a coffee run, or just soaking up the riverside vibes.
