Poll: What do you think the Marshland Rd speed limit should be?
A North Canterbury commuter says common sense is behind his push to reinstate a 70kmh speed limit on one of the main routes into Christchurch.
Grant Harris is one of the regular users of Marshland Rd who has contacted Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey after the Christchurch City Council reduced the limit to 60kmh.
Doocey said he had been approached by many residents who were unhappy after the speed limit between Chaneys Corner and Prestons Rd was reduced in November.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions

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!
