The CCC are starting consultation on a new separated cycleway between Halswell and the City. For those of you who went to the St Mary's Fair you may have seen some information there. Check it out. See what they have planned. Send your comments (whether positive or negative) in!
This is a great new facility that could have a major impact on road congestion by encouraging those interested but nervous about riding on the road to use their bikes.
CCC are also be using a new web-based public consultation tool called Social Pinpoint for the first time. For Major Cycle Routes, it allows people to click on a specific area on a map that affects or concerns them and leave their comment or thoughts. It’s an online tool that aims to improve the way organisations engage with their communities and stakeholders.
We will be holding three public drop-in sessions throughout the engagement period where you can meet with the project team and discuss the plans further:
Tuesday 18 October
5pm - 7pm (presentation at 5.15pm)
The Atrium, Christchurch Netball Centre
455 Hagley Avenue
Thursday 20 October
7pm - 9pm (presentation at 7.15pm)
South-West Baptist Church Hall
244 Lyttelton Street
Wednesday 26 October
5.30pm - 7.30pm (presentation at 5.45pm)
Te Hapua Halswell Centre, Hao Room

Water in the Avonhead-Russley area

UPDATE: Christchurch City Council has been on-site flushing the water network in the Avonhead-Russley area. As a result water in this area is now clearing.


Due to the quick response from residents and contractors, the clouded water was contained around Russley Road to Avonhead Road between Yaldhurst Road and Memorial Ave.


We advise residents living in this area to run an outside tap for 10-15 minutes to remove any remaining cloudy water from household pipes.

Further flushing and testing will be continued this afternoon. Test results will be available mid-afternoon tomorrow.

While we do not believe the current situation requires us to recommend people to boil water this is something they can do, as a precautionary measure, if they have any concerns.

POST: We are investigating why water in some parts of the north west of the city is coming out of the tap cloudy. The Council had received number of calls from the public this morning about the quality of the water, mainly in the Avonhead- Russley area.

The water was in the process of being tested and the network was also being flushed. The pump station which is believed to be the cause of the discolouration has been shut down.

We are hoping to get to the bottom of it very quickly but in the meantime if people have any concerns they should, as a precaution, boil the water before drinking it or use bottled water.

We will keep residents updated as we receive information.
