People with concerns about the downstream effects of the Christchurch Northern Corridor will have the chance to express their views in a public meeting next month.
Those who submitted through the consultation process have been invited to speak at the meeting on August 6, in front of the Papanui-Innes Community Board and a traffic expert at the city council chambers. Any potentially affected owners and occupiers of streets identified in the report will have the opportunity to engage with council.
A short feedback summary of the 408 submissions received was posted online last week which revealed several common themes from concerned residents.
These include safety of pedestrians, impact on businesses, loss of parking and environmental impacts, including air pollution, noise and vibration levels.
Overall, submitters expressed concern about a general sense of loss of community the increased traffic and road changes may bring.

The healing benefits of turmeric are many and include:
Anti-inflammatory - Turmeric has long been known to reduce inflammation in our bodies. It is particularly useful in cases of arthritis.
Antioxidant - It's a great antioxidant and helps fight cellular oxidisation and the development of free radicals.
How does it work?
Turmeric contains the chemical called curcumin. Curcumin and other chemicals found in turmeric might help to decrease the swelling or inflammation. Because of this, turmeric might be beneficial for treating conditions that involve inflammation.
