A city council report recommended five minute parking restrictions outside the ATM and 60min parking on the north side of the street, from Spooky Boogie cafe to Canterbury St. Along with no-stopping lines outside Albion Square for maintenance vehicle access. But the Banks Peninsula Community Board rejected the changes last week. It said ‘residents only’ and angled parking needed to be looked at before making a decision. That was in line with consultation feedback – and went against the report, which said angle parking was “not appropriate” because it would conflict with fire engine, ambulance and other heavy vehicle movements. But the board disagreed and has asked city council staff to investigate resident only and angle parking “so that the board can consider these as realistic options.” Board member Tyrone Fields said the issue will be discussed again in November. Wastewater pipeline being laid in harbour A NEW 5km wastewater pipeline is being laid under water between Lyttelton and Governors Bay this week. Sections of pipe are being towed into the harbour by a barge with an on-board winch. They are then guided into a pre-dug trench about 1m below the harbour seabed. The first segment of pipe was launched from Naval Point; once in place the second piece was welded on to the tail of the first. The process is then repeated until the full 5km length of the pipeline is in place. The 24-hour operation started on Monday and is expected take several days. The new pipeline is part of the Lyttelton Harbour/Whakaraupo wastewater upgrade to improve and future-proof wastewater services in Lyttelton, Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour. When construction is complete, two submarine pipelines will carry wastewater from Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour to Lyttelton, as part of a $53 million scheme aimed at ending the routine discharge of treated wastewater into Lyttelton Harbour by 2021. City council head of three waters and waste John Mackie said PIPES: Sections of pipe to carry wastewater are being laid underwater between Governors Bay and Lyttelton this week. it was exciting to see the project reach the marine stage. “It’s another step closer to cleaner water in Lyttelton Harbour which is an end goal we’re all committed to.” The Governors Bay pipeline should be complete by the end of this year with the Diamond Harbour pipeline due for completion in early 2019. Currently, wastewater from Lyttelton, Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour is treated at wastewater treatment plants in each of the townships before being discharged through outfall pipelines into Lyttelton Harbour. Under the new scheme, untreated wastewater from Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour will be pumped through the submarine pipelines to a new pump station on Simeon Quay in Lyttelton. It will then be piped through the Lyttelton Tunnel to the Woolston pump station and onto the Bromley wastewater treatment plant, where it will be treated. From there it will be discharged out to sea through the Christchurch Ocean Outfall. PARKING: This section of Lyttelton St west may get angled and residents-only parking after feedback showed strong support for both. Take a photo, pass it on INNOVATIVE: Maree Henry at her shop Henry Traders on London St. • By Sarla Donovan ABOUT 15 years ago Maree Henry was at an open home in Lyttelton when she took a photograph out the window – a view of Lyttelton Port. She still has it. And a while ago it got her thinking about living in the port town. “How we all have a different view from our windows, a different relation to the harbour.” So last year, as an experiment, Ms Henry put a disposable camera into circulation in Lyttelton. It was boxed with instructions to take a photo from a window in your house, record the street and the angle of your view in a small booklet, and then pass the camera on. That camera arrived back recently and Ms Henry said it was fascinating to see how it had travelled from place to place. “The handwriting was quite lovely; just recording the direction of the view and the street. The first view was recorded as ‘looking west from London St, then looking east from Cressy Tce.’ Some took a picture from the back so you were still getting a view but it was the hills. Other people wrote, ‘the tugboat coming in’ and ‘light on Quail Island looking east.’ Now she’s seen how it could work, Ms Henry is planning a book project based on capturing views from the eyes and windows of Lyttelton residents. Though still in the planning stages she hopes later this year, (probably later in the spring) to release 20 disposable cameras into the community through her gift shop, Henry Trading on London St. Take a photo, then pass it on. With so many cameras, there’s room for some ‘collateral damage’ she said, estimating around 400 photos should come back. From these she will make a book to sell at her shop. “I’m interested in the idea that it’s not up to me, it’s up to fate, I don’t have control. That anonymity and the organic nature of it – as soon as you pass them out you just cross your fingers and hope they come back.” We welcome new patients Dr Rose Chambers Dr Ben Hudson Dr Kim Pasley Dr Kim Glass Dr Sophie Hart Dr Anna Maze • Online appointment bookings and prescription requests are available for enrolled patients • We are accredited by the Royal NZ College of General Practice and have achieved their 3 yearly Cornerstone accreditation standard for the third consecutive cycle • We strive to provide the highest quality medical care • Patricia Stowell (Podiatrist) - appointments available the first and third Fridays of each month.
