Report highlights danger at intersection 

• By Julia Evans 

NEW RESEARCH reveals the 

controversial Glandovey and 

Idris Rds intersection is not 

suitable for heavy vehicles. 

The Glandovey, Idris and 

Straven Residents’ Association 

commissioned a tracking 

analysis to look into traffic using 

the intersection. 

The report from traffic 

engineering company Traffic 

Design Group showed heavy 

vehicles could not navigate 

any turns of the Fendalton 

intersection without cutting into 

other lanes. 

It comes during a year-long 

campaign from residents 

to improve safety at the 

intersection. 

Residents want to see 

heavy vehicles banned from 

driving through the area and 

this report only cements that, 

group member and Glandovey 

Rd resident Nigel Francis 

said. 

The report has been sent to the 

city council. City councillor Raf 

Manji told the Nor’West News 

that when council resumed after 

the Christmas break, it would 

look into banning heavy vehicles 

from the area. 

Mr Francis said the sooner 

trucks are banned from the area, 

the better. 

He said the design of the 

intersection means there is no 

room for heavy vehicles, cars 

and cyclists, which makes it 

dangerous.

Elmwood Park Bowling Club duo Bev 

Morel (left and below), and Sherrie 

Cottle, 57, were crowned national pairs 

champions in Dunedin on Sunday. 

At the ripe old age of 76 it was Morel’s 

third national title, proving age is no barrier 

to success. The Elmwood duo defeated 

the defending champions, Dale Rayner 

and Ashleigh Jeffcoat, 19-6, in the final.

Safety concerns on narrow road 


IT’S ONLY a matter of time 

before someone is killed 

on a narrow road between 

Northlands Shopping Centre 

and Papanui High School. 

That’s according to Papanui- 

Innes Community 

Board 

member John 

Stringer, who 

has been lobbying 

for safety 

issues on Sissons 

Drive to 

be addressed 

John Stringer for the better 

part of the year. 

“A local fatality is a high possibility 

soon if we do not take 

action,” he said. 

Mr Stringer said he witnessed 

a crash where a vehicle went 

through the fence into a 

building at Papanui High 

School. 

“It could have hamburgered 

a mum with a pram or a cluster 

of Papanui students or cyclists 

into the metal railing fence and 

concrete wall,” he said. 

“There is a very wide pedestrian 

and cycleway alongside an 

extremely narrow two-lane carriage 

way flanked by concrete 

slab walls which is becoming a

crash corridor. In a crash, cars 

will bounce off into oncoming 

traffic or people.” 

The community board has 

asked city council staff for an 

audit of the traffic congestion 

and safety of the road as well 

as along Sawyers Arms and 

Langdons Rds in a bid to find 

solutions to the safety concerns. 

That report will go back to the 

board. 

But Mr Stringer said the $18 

million expansion to Northlands, 

the Langdons Quarter, 

will only add to the concerns. 

“The loss of car parks could 

make the issues worse,” he said.

SPORTS CAR PARK GRANT 

The Belfast Sports and Community 

Centre has been granted $1500 by 

the Papanui-Innes Community 

Board to go towards repairing 

pot holes in its car park. The club 

wants to repair the superficial 

holes temporarily before looking at 

raising $87,000 to repair and reseal 

the entire car park. Due to the high 

cost, the club will look to repair 

the car park once earthquake 

strengthening has been completed 

on its building.

Motorists targeted near St Albans School 


PUPIL SAFETY remains in the 

spotlight at St Albans School. 

A funding grant for an 

additional traffic warden and 

a two-week police sting were 

launched in a bid to address 

the ongoing problem of 

speed, dangerous driving and 

inappropriate parking which 

has been compromising 

the safety of pupils around 

Westminster, Trafalgar and 

Cranford Sts. 

Police and the city council ran 

the ‘education and enforcement 

– CHAOS at the school gates’ 

programme to address the issues. 

The programme wrapped up at 

the end of last month. 

Police and city council 

enforcement officers were at 

the site during the morning 

and afternoon to monitor the 

behaviour of motorists for two 

weeks. 

Papanui-Innes Community 

Board chairwoman Ali Jones 

said it was about changing 

the attitudes of motorists 

permanently. She said another 

operation was planned when 

the school reopened to keep the 

momentum up. 

“I don’t mean it as a pun but 

it’s about keeping that foot on 

the accelerator,” she said. 

However, she said the 

operation wasn’t entirely about 

being “punitive”. 

“It’s about education and 

educating people about how to 

navigate the area,” Ms Jones said. 

It comes as the board approved 

an additional $1500 grant to pay 

for another traffic warden and 

patrol – although the school 

initially requested $4500. 

The school told the community 

board there was still an 

“immediate need” for further 

traffic wardens and patrol 

support. 

The school currently pays for 

two traffic wardens on Trafalgar 

and Cranford Sts using Ministry 

of Education funding. 

The community board has also 

requested that the city council

Albans School

afternoon.

HUNTER 

make school warning signage a 

priority in the 2018/19 financial 

year. 

The board said the urgency 

stemmed from the ongoing 

traffic issues. 

It wants more signage 

installed before the opening of 

the Northern Arterial, which is 

expected to bring more traffic 

through the area.

Danger at 

intersection 

highlighted 

•From page 1 

“There’s a lot of heavy traffic 

that jams its way down here, 

down these narrow streets. It’s 

dangerous for us and anyone 

using the roads,” Mr Francis 

said. 

Group spokesman James 

Wilding said heavy vehicles are 

common in the area since it 

was upgraded from lights to a 

roundabout three years ago. 

The report comes following 

the release of city council 

safety audits to the group via 

the Local Government Official 

Information and Meeting Act 

in November. 

The audit said “death or serious 

injury” at the intersection 

of Glandovey and Idris Rds is 

“likely” once every five to 10 

years due to visibility issues between 

vehicles and pedestrians. 

During the campaign to 

address roading concerns, city 

council chief executive Karleen 

Edwards recommended 

residents not be involved in a 

workshop to find solutions. 

However, the Fendalton- 

Waimairi-Harewood Community 

Board went against that 

decision.

LICENSED SALES CONSULTANT REAA 2008 

This has been a happy family home for many years, but a change in circumstances creates an 

opportunity for another family to move in and enjoy this lovely property. The views are hard 

to beat, across the city to the mountains and sea beyond. The substantial home is configured 

to offer great flexibility for all sorts of households, with a semi self-contained area that could 

be fantastic for extended family. 

The main areas of the home are upstairs where living, dining and kitchen are open plan, all 

with aspects of the view. The living room opens through ranch sliders to a wooden deck that 

wraps around the house and also connects to the master bedroom. A large kitchen area with 

room for casual dining is a few steps up from the living spaces and connects to a private and 

sheltered outdoor area at the rear of the property. 

The master bedroom has an ensuite, and there are two other bedrooms upstairs along with 

the main bathroom facilities, which are separated into 3 rooms, making it a practical and 

convenient home for busy households. Downstairs a spacious entrance and stairway area 

opens into a double bedroom with adjoining living and kitchen area, which in turn connects 

to a large games room. These are all generous spaces with myriad uses. The whole downstairs 

area has it’s own large outdoor area where of course the views take centre stage. 

There is a double garage with easy drive on access and off street parking. The timeless design 

of the house offers the next owners potential to update without breaking the bank. Whatever 

the next owner plans it will be the views that capture the heart and spark the imagination.

HOW TO COOK BARBECUE 

GRILLED BUTTERFLIED 

WHOLE CHICKEN 

Ingredients 

1 whole butterflied chicken 

1 to taste salt & freshly ground 

pepper 

Barbecue sauce 

Directions 

Preheat grill to medium. Get 

surface temperature to about 200 

deg C. 

Clean and oil well. Clean the 

chicken if you desire and pat dry. 

Cut the backbone out of the 

chicken with sharp kitchen 

scissors. You could use a knife, 

but the scissors are much safer 

and work great. 

With a large knife, give the 

breastbone a large nick in the 

front of the chicken to help the 

bird lay flat. 

Rinse the inside of the bird out, 

trim any loose fat and extra skin. 

Pat dry again. Give the bird a 

good sprinkle of salt and pepper. 

You could use any seasoning you 

want here. 

Place skin down on the 

grill. Flip after you get a nice 

browning on the skin after about 

12-15min. 

Give the chicken a good 

brushing of barbecue sauce. 

Grill another 3-4min until 

the sauce is browning well. 

Total grilling on the second side 

should take 20-25min. 

Let set for 5min then cut and 

serve.

steak, cut 

into 2cm 

pieces 

20g butter 

2 Tbsp oil 

1 onion, chopped 

2 cloves garlic, 

crushed 

1 serving flour, seasoned, for 

dusting 

2 cups beef stock 

½ tsp mixed herbs 

½ cup red wine 

1 Tbsp flour, mixed with 1 Tbsp 

melted butter for the thickening 

1 sheet short pastry (savoury) 

1 sheet puff pastry 

1 egg, for glazing 

Directions 

Heat oven to 180 deg C. Heat 

half the butter and oil in a medium 

sized pot. Fry the onions and 

garlic for 5min until softened. 

Dust the meat generously with 

flour and shake off the excess. 

Heat the remaining butter and 

oil in a frying pan. Brown the 

meat in batches then add to the 

onions. Add a little of the stock 

to the pan to deglaze then pour 

into the pot. 

Add the remaining stock to 

the meat along with the herbs, 

red wine and mushrooms. 

Cook on a low heat 

for 1 hour or until 

the meat is tender. 

Remove ¼ cup 

of the liquid 

and add to 

the thickening, 

combine 

then tip back into the 

pot and stir to thicken. Check the 

seasoning (add salt and pepper 

if you wish). Cool the mixture to 

room temperature. 

Line a 23cm pie tin with the 

short pastry and trim the edges. 

Line with baking paper and rice 

and bake blind for 15-20min 

until just cooked. Remove the 

paper. Fill the pastry with the 

meat mixture. Dampen the edges, 

and top with the puff pastry, 

pressing gently to seal. Use any 

extra pastry for decoration. Make 

a few slits in the top with a knife 

to release steam during baking. 

Brush the top with egg. Place 

into the oven for 35-40min until 

the pastry is risen and golden. 

Remove and serve hot.

1 in 2 people 

deficient in B12 

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and 

as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12. 

Scientists at Rush University Medical 

Center found those most deficient 

in vitamin B12 to have the smallest 

brain mass & the lowest scores on 

tests measuring short-term memory, 

concentration & brain performance. 

Another study showed that older people 

with higher levels of B12 in their blood 

have bigger, healthier brains & score higher 

on cognitive tests than those with lower 

levels. Yet another recent landmark study 

showed that B12 supplementation slows 

the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage 

& declining cognitive function. B12 is 

essential for energy production, cell 

health, regulation of mood & sleep cycles, 

nerve health & repair, & prevention of 

homocysteine a serious cardiovascular 

risk factor that is known to cause damage 

& plaque in the blood vessels. It can also 

increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard 

researchers found a 

34% decrease risk 

of vision loss in a 

study of participants 

aged 40+ who 

supplemented with 

B12. Another study 

linked a higher risk of 

hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who 

were low in B12. 

The reason so many people lack B12 

appears to be our body’s ability to absorb 

it declining with age as the digestive 

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux 

medication & other drugs further reduce 

B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in 

the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual 

tablets that are dissolved in the mouth & 

thru bypassing the digestive tract have 

been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in 

the body. 

Further detailed information is

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL

Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable

cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help 

reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable 

Skin Rejuvenator 

Until Rachel 

Hunter’s popular 

TV series “TOUR 

OF BEAUTY” Dilo 

Oil was relatively 

unknown, being one 

of the best-kept secrets 

of the Pacific Islands. It 

may however be the number 

one natural beauty oil available 

as it possesses powerful natural skin 

regeneration and healing properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) 

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as 

it is one of the most effective agents 

in promoting the regeneration and 

formation of new tissue, thereby 

accelerating wound healing and 

the growth of healthy skin. Dilo 

Oil is super-absorbing and can 

penetrate all three layers of the 

skin, offering exceptional cell 

hydration and regeneration. 

As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, 

antimicrobial, antifungal and 

antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the 

skin young and youthful and for just about 

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions 

for which it is considered helpful include 

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and 

acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch 

marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including 

chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, 

rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin, 

121 Skyhawk Road 

eczema, psoriasis, 

dermatitis, herpes 

sores (cold-sores), 

insect bites and 

stings, rheumatism, 

pain, sciatica, 

shingles, sunburn, 

rosacea, athlete’s foot, skin 

eruptions, warts, skin ulcers 

and sores, nappy rash and almost 

any other skin ailment and often with 

incredible results. 

Many beauty and skincare products 

on the market today contain unnatural 

ingredients that can be toxic and may 

even contribute to disease. Generally 

the benefits are exaggerated 

and often only temporary or 

camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 

100% pure and certified organic. 

It has been cold-pressed from the 

Dilo nut and contains absolutely 

no additives. Polynesians and 

Southeast Asians have revered 

Dilo Oil for centuries believing it 

to be a sacred gift of nature and 

the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates 

and supports the skins natural 

healing process through the growth of new 

healthy skin tissue. I personally believe 

it is a remarkable product and highly 

recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is 

$19.90 and 100ml only $29.90. 

Further information is available from 

the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s 

Health & Natural Therapy in New 

Brighton. We are always Happy to help!

This sensational property has that instant 

‘fall in love” effect... 

I’m not sure if it is the beautiful expansive 

water view, the private position or simply the 

home? Most likely it’s a combination of all that 

makes this a very special property. 

Modern, stylish and spacious, this home is 

soaked in sun, enjoys fabulous views. 

The home has been quality built, with 

an architectural appeal that will ideally suit 

families and professional couples who are 

seeking something a little different and a lot 

special. 

The property is tucked away, yet offers easy 

access, good off street parking and internal 

garaging. The home itself boasts a versatile 

floor plan, to cater for growing families or 

those who chose to work from home, or 

simply love to entertain. 

Generous open plan kitchen and dining 

plus a separate lounge with a floor to ceiling 

picture window invites the view inside 

dominates the first level and open to a deck 

that provides the ideal spot to soak in the view 

and relax with a wine or good book after a 

busy day. Also on this level is the master suite, 

complete with ensuite and walk in robe. 

Head downstairs and you will find a further 

three bedrooms, all with great storage and the 

main bathroom. 

This property is one that must be viewed to 

appreciate, come and see for yourself.

SONGWRITERS RETREAT NZ 

A NEW ZEALAND FIRST 

SINGER-songwriter Charlotte Yates prepares to deliver New 

Zealand's first songwriting retreat in Hanmer Springs, 

Waitangi Weekend, Feb 2-6, 2018. 

A professional songwriter for over 25 years, Charlotte also 

coaches songwriting students individually through her 

service, Song Doctor. Charlotte has designed and presented 

small group based songwriting programmes for workshops 

and following her own study through the Berklee College of 

Music recently, more intensive clinics. 

e Songwriters Retreat NZ has developed out of several 

shorter successful Songwriting Clinics held throughout the 

South Island over the last two years. 

Held over five days, the inaugural Songwriters Retreat NZ 

is an opportunity for songwriters to create and present new 

work in a clear, well designed practical programme, 

including one on one coaching, tutor and peer feedback and 

co-writing sessions. 

Songwriters Retreat NZ offers tried and tested methods 

for stimulating inspiration and turning it into real songs 

people want to hear. A maximum of12 places are available 

– enough to allow supportive musical connection, but also 

enough time for individual mentoring. 

Go from thinking about songwriting to doing it. Go from 

wanting to be a songwriter to being one. 

For more information, bookings and full programme go 

to www.songdoctor.co.nz.
