Have your say on drive to reduce speeds in Wigram

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Wigram may be on the road to reducing speeds with proposed changes open for feedback.

Residents are encouraged to share their views on a draft plan to reduce speed limits in the area, including Lodestar Ave, Stark Dr and The Runway at The Landing.

Christchurch City Council also proposes to install P60 restrictions in the shopping section at The Landing to help customers find car spaces throughout the day in the busy central area, and in Skyhawk Rd to keep the cycle lanes clear.

People can provide feedback on the draft speed plans via the council’s Have Your Say webpage, with the deadline for submissions Wednesday, November 18.

A final decision is due in December, with any changes in place by the end of January next year.

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!
