Pupils release eels to mark<br />
creek transformation<br />
IT WAS a slippery winter<br />
morning in Christchurch – but<br />
not in the way you’d expect.<br />
Pupils from Tuahiwi School<br />
released eels and planted trees to<br />
celebrate the successful realignment<br />
of the Kā Pūtahi Creek.<br />
Rich with native life, the creek<br />
area in Belfast has been the beneficiary<br />
of the upcoming creation<br />
of the Northern Corridor<br />
roading system.<br />
The realignment has been<br />
carried out by the city council to<br />
allow the corridor, which begins<br />
construction in October, to pass<br />
over the Kā Pūtahi without the<br />
need to obstruct the creek with<br />
the creation of special culverts.<br />
City council head of transport<br />
Chris Gregory said big transport<br />
developments like this often led<br />
to unexpected benefits on the<br />
side.<br />
“In this case, the Northern<br />
Corridor project has given the<br />
city council the perfect opportunity<br />
to create two hectares of<br />
native forest and riparian planting,”<br />
he said.<br />
“Importantly, the realignment<br />
of the stream means that both<br />
people and wildlife will be able<br />
to move up and down the stream<br />
corridor freely, without any barriers<br />
created by the motorway<br />
NEW DIRECTION: A Belfast creek has benefited from the<br />
Northern Corridor roading project. <br />
and culverts.”<br />
Planning for the realignment<br />
began in 2013 and was approved<br />
by the city council in <strong>August</strong><br />
2015.<br />
Construction began in<br />
January <strong>2016</strong>, with contractors<br />
Grounds & Services Ltd able<br />
to complete the work ahead of<br />
schedule.<br />
In securing a viable spring-fed<br />
river ecosystem and a sourceto-sea<br />
experience through the<br />
continuation of the urban reserve<br />
network and walkway, the<br />
project has been an important<br />
step in achieving the Styx Vision<br />
2000-2040.<br />
PROGRESS: Harcourts Holmwood owners Tony Jenkins and<br />
Lynne MacDonald outside the business’s old premises which<br />
will make way for a new building. <br />
New headquarters for<br />
Harcourts Holmwood<br />
HARCOURTS Holmwood is<br />
preparing for a new era with the<br />
demolition of its quake-damaged<br />
head office.<br />
More than five years on from<br />
the earthquakes, the damaged<br />
building at 397 Ilam Rd will<br />
make way for a new state-of-the<br />
art premises.<br />
Owners Tony Jenkins and<br />
Lynne MacDonald said it was<br />
incredibly satisfying to see work<br />
underway on the site after several<br />
years of evaluation and planning.<br />
The new building will be the<br />
flagship premises for Harcourts<br />
Holmwood, which operates seven<br />
offices throughout Christchurch,<br />
as well as in Invercargill<br />
and Gore.<br />
It’s been designed to cater for<br />
all aspects of the business’s real<br />
estate service, including a new<br />
on-site auction room and adjoining<br />
cafe.<br />
The business will operate<br />
out of 142 Sherborne Street, St<br />
Albans, during construction.<br />
