Council wants your help on roads
Hurunui residents are being asked to tell their council what they think of the state of the roads they use including speed limits, and the council is promising to listen.
The Hurunui District Council, which has a roading network of over 1600 kilometres, has launched an interactive map to stay familiar with community experiences on that network and on top of any concerns.
"We want to know about people's experience on our network, about any places where people feel unsafe, and if the signed speeds seem appropriate to our road users. Council officers will receive reports generated from the map and use this to decide on future work programmes," roading manager Kushla Tapper said.
The aim of collecting this data is for longer-term projects and in this way community feedback will make a difference in shaping local roads and improving safety.
Everyone can start using the map to report their concerns and ideas from today.
The interactive map is quick and simple to use, allowing residents to drop pins on exact locations and/or reinforce other user's comments. It can be found on the council website (www.hurunui.govt.nz).
More immediate concerns should be reported via the Snap Send Solve app - so the council can act promptly.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
