Email bridget.rutherford@starmedia.kiwi or phone 371 0778 Library designs released BRIDGET RUTHERFORD Construction of the new Redcliffs Library will begin next month. The library, which will be built on Main Rd, opposite New World, will be a one storey building with the library, reception, a children’s library and a community break out space. City council capital delivery manager Darren Moses said the contract for the construction had been awarded to City Care. “Construction is scheduled to begin in June 2016 – the exact date will be confirmed with the announcement of an official ground-breaking/sod-turning event,” he said. Plans for the building also include a meeting room, small kitchen and toilets. The original library was badly damaged in the February 2011 and June 2011 earthquakes, and later demolished. Mr Moses said the city council hoped to have the library open by the end of the year, with construction expected to take about five months. He said the front of the building had been designed to address the street frontage, with glass frontage, a small terrace area, seating, bike racks and planting. Meanwhile, Corbel Construction will build Governors Bay’s new $700,000 community centre. Mr Moses said there would COMMUNITY ASSET: An artist’s impression of what the new Redcliffs Library will look like. be action on the Cresswell Ave site this week. The old community centre was demolished after sustaining damage in the February 2011 quake. Governors Bay resident Rosie Belton said on first glance the plans looked good. “We’ve never really had a community centre, we just had the old quaint old building that had the pottery shed in it.” It is expected to take about six months to build, and will include a community space, a kitchen, meeting room, deck, toilets and car parking spaces. EXCITING: Construction of Governors Bay’s new community centre will take about six months. INTERSECTION HAZARD A teenager was knocked off his bicycle at a contentious Ferrymead intersection last week. He collided with a vehicle at the St Andrews Hill and Bridle Path Rds intersection at about 5.50pm on Thursday. It comes after a city council report criticised the new intersection’s lay out. RECIDIVIST DRINK DRIVER A Sumner woman who drove into two pedestrians knocking them onto the rocks below Main Rd while four-times over the legal drink-driving limit, was on a zero alcohol licence. Sarah Jane Arrow, of Sumner, appeared before Judge Jane Farish in the district court on Friday. The 45-year-old pleaded guilty to drink driving causing injury and driving contrary to a zero alcohol licence and was remanded on bail for sentencing on July 26. CLARIFICATION Last week Bay Harbour News reported the Lyttelton Timeball Station would be rebuilt exactly as it was. This was incorrect. Heritage New Zealand will rebuild the Timeball tower, mechanism and flagpole, but not the residence.
