Driver Reviver on State Highway 1 in Hurunui this Easter Monday

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

AMI's Driver Reviver – a public event to educate drivers on the connection between driver fatigue and crashes – will be held on Monday, April 10 from 2pm to 4pm at the Hurunui River rest area on SH1.

Anyone on the road at the time is encouraged to stop in for a complimentary snack and drink from the AMI BBQ Trailer, and a barista coffee from the coffee car. Visitors can take a rest on a bean bag or visit the activities onsite to learn more about how to curb the effects of driver fatigue, particularly on long journeys.

The AMI Driver Reviver event is a collaboration with local police, the Hurunui District Council, Downers, Fire and Emergency New Zealand and St John, with strong support from Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency, and Satisfy Food Rescue.

Pedestrian access from one of Christchurch’s favourite streets is being extended all the way to the Ōtakaro Avon River. This new 12m-wide pathway will give you a direct, easy route from the street to the river promenade ... perfect for a stroll, a coffee run, or just soaking up the riverside vibes.

We want to know: In your view, what makes a city people-friendly?
