PAGE 2 Wednesday July 11 2018 BAY HARBOUR Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi get in touch from the editor’s desk THAT WAS one sweet equaliser for Ferrymead Bays (see page 23) against longtime rivals Cashmere Technical on Saturday. Midfielder Chris Murphy nailed the critical goal in the 93rd minute. It means Bays are two points behind Tech, Dunedin Technical, Nomads United and Coastal Spirit - still a good spot to be in the Southern league. Murphy told sports reporter Gordon Findlater: “I managed to turn a defender and got a little toe poke on it. I won’t glorify it too much, I’ve definitely scored some better goals in my time.” Meanwhile not such good news on the rugby front for Sumner (see page 20). Sumner went down to Sydenham and with it goes their semi-final hopes in the Hawkins trophy. - Barry Clarke GENERAL ENQUIRIES Ph 379 7100 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Ph 379 1100 Star Media, a division of Allied Press Ltd PO box 1467, Christchurch starmedia.kiwi NEWS Sarla Donovan Ph: 021 919 917 sarla.donovan@starmedia.kiwi ADVERTISING Javier Balcazar Ph: 982 9308 javier.balcazar@ starmedia.kiwi Rob Davison Ph: 021 225 8584 rob.davison@ starmedia.kiwi news Rebuilding military history at Godley Head Trade students are helping to create a partial replica of the port war signal station used to defend Lyttelton Harbour during WW2.

Rolleston Ave Montreal St Montreal St Cambridge Tce Cambridge Tce Colombo St St Wednesday July 11 2018 News Slower speed for Richmond Hill • By Sarla Donovan RICHMOND HILL will have a restricted speed zone of 40km/h imposed from October as the city council attempts to address safety issues in the area. The 100 section-plus Greenwood Farm subdivision has generated additional traffic on the hill suburb’s narrow roads and increased community concern over driver and pedestrian safety. The restricted area starts at the bottom of Richmond Hill Rd where it meets Nayland St and stretches Sara Templeton up to the summit. Nayland St is not included. However, a trial 30km/h speed limit there and on Wakefield Ave is expected later this year. Public consultation showed majority support for the measure, although a number of the 68 submission criticised the lack of footpaths in the area. “It is very irresponsible for the city council to allow a new subdivision with hundreds of more vehicle movements per day and not upgrade the road and footpath,” said one submitter. “I would think this would actually be illegal. When we drive up and down the road, we daily see young school children in dark uniforms having to walk on the unlit road. It is just a matter of time before one of these children will be killed by a car.” City council manager planning delivery and transport Lynette Ellis said due to the physical constraints, particularly land stability, it was unlikely Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi SLOWER: The speed limit on Richmond Hill will be lowered to 40km/h. any physical widening will be initiated. “Any upgrade will be in the form of repair and resurfacing to the current road surface and footpath.” She said at the time the consent was granted in 2006, the developer was not required to pay development contributions towards associated transport activity. Heathcote Ward city councillor Sara Templeton has asked city council staff to “investigate the pedestrian safety concerns on Richmond Hill Rd outlined in the submissions and report to the (Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community) Board with potential solutions by the end of 2018.” She said the lack of footpaths in the hill suburbs had been a concern for some time, “especially for children getting to and from school.” It will cost about $5000 to install the new 40km/h speed signage on Richmond Hill.
