Wednesday May 11 2016 Big turnout for river clean-up The estuary at Ferrymead lit up with high visibility vests on Saturday as hundreds of people turned up to collect rubbish as part of a city-wide clean up. It was part of this year’s Mother of all Clean Ups, which saw people pick up rubbish from the banks of the Heathcote and Avon rivers and the estuary. Avon Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust co-ordinator Tanya Jenkins said although it was great to see so many volunteers turn up to help, it was sad to see the amount of rubbish that had to be collected. “A large amount of rubbish we found was obviously thrown out of car windows like cans, fast food packaging and bottles,” she said. Other rubbish looked to have come down the rivers, she said. Across the city, 935 bags of rubbish were collected, as well as 515 larger items such as tyres, building materials and televisions.

Container bar to serve last drinks BRIDGET RUTHERFORD Porthole Bar was set up after the February 2011 earthquake to give Lyttelton patrons a place to go and socialise. But next week, the container bar which sits on the corner of London and Canterbury Sts, will serve its last drinks. Its last day in operation will be on May 21. Owner Mike Dunlay said the new land owners wanted to start developing a new restaurant and bar on the site by October. He was going to move the container bar to another location, but it was too difficult to find a new site, he said. “It’s been a really good business and has had huge local support. It’s a bit sad, I’m a bit gutted as well.” He put the container bar up for auction on Trade Me, with bids reaching about $17,000. The auction will close on Sunday. Mr Dunlay said patrons would be disappointed. “I might have to get out of town otherwise there might be a lynch mob,” he joked. Patrons have just over a week to go along and farewell the container bar. Have you had your Fletcher EQR repairs independently checked? We will do it for free.
