"There has been a change in sequencing of the rollout of temporary chlorination and we will now start treatment in the Northwest zone from Friday 6 April.
The change in start date has been enabled because the Canterbury District Health Board has been able to get enough filters to protect dialysis patients in the area.
Treatment in the Riccarton zone will start on Wednesday 4 April, and in Sockburn and Hornby (the West zone) on Friday 6 April.
Previously we had planned to start treatment in the two biggest zones, Central and Northwest, at the end of April. Amending the timeframe will reduce the overall demand on staff at the end of the programme and allow for a more efficient roll out.
Valves between the central and northwest zone have been shut off to stop any transfer of chlorinated water into the central zone. The central zone also has a higher pressure than the northwest, which would prevent water from the northwest flowing into the central area.

- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.
Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertilzer mix.
If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly.
