Wastewater<br />

pipeline flows<br />

into place<br />

A 535M wastewater pipeline has<br />

been installed under the Heathcote<br />

River, marking a major milestone<br />

in work on the Lyttelton Harbour<br />

wastewater project.<br />

The pipeline will attach the<br />

Alport Place pump station to the<br />

Heathcote Valley pipeline – signalling<br />

a major step in the project<br />

to connect Lyttelton Harbour’s<br />

wastewater system to the main<br />

Christchurch system.<br />

The installation was completed<br />

early on Sunday, with the pipeline<br />

pulled along Ferry Rd overnight.<br />

The pipeline was drawn<br />

through the tunnel under the<br />

river and Ferry Road roundabout<br />

by a specialist drill rig.<br />

The rig is the only one of its<br />

kind in New Zealand.<br />

The work team will pressure test<br />

the pipe this week to ensure it is<br />

ready for use.<br />

The multi-million dollar project<br />

will put an end to the routine discharge<br />

of treated wastewater into<br />

Lyttelton Harbour.<br />

Contractors working for the<br />

city council had hoped to drill<br />

the tunnel as part of the Lyttelton<br />

wastewater project in January,<br />

however the start date was pushed<br />

out to mid-February.<br />

Nga Puna Wai expansion feedback sought<br />

A PROPOSAL to lease land at<br />

Ngā Puna Wai Sports Hub for a<br />

new multi-court indoor sports<br />

centre is open for community<br />

feedback.<br />

Netsal, a company jointly established<br />

by Mainland Football<br />

Federation and the Christchurch<br />

Netball Centre, wants to develop<br />

and operate a <strong>10</strong>-court facility<br />

for community-level sport at<br />

Ngā Puna Wai in Halswell and<br />

is seeking a ground lease from<br />

the city council.<br />

People can have their say on<br />

the lease proposal through the<br />

Have Your Say section of the city<br />

council’s website. The deadline<br />

for submissions is April 6.<br />

There will be a drop-in session<br />

where people can learn more<br />

about the lease proposal at Ngā<br />

Puna Wai on <strong>March</strong> 17 from<br />

4.30pm to 6pm.<br />

At the end of the submission<br />

period, a hearings panel will<br />

consider the public feedback and<br />

make recommendations to the<br />

city council.<br />

The city council believes<br />

Netsal’s proposed facility is in<br />

keeping with the original vision<br />

of Ngā Puna Wai as a hub for<br />

multiple sports, which is why it<br />

is looking to lease it land.<br />

The proposed site for the<br />

courts is on the south-west<br />

From the moment we met Cameron and his team it was clear<br />

that this experience was going to be different than our previous<br />

experiences with other Real Estate companies. Cameron and his team<br />

were efficient, to the point, and understood our situation straight<br />

away and told us they’re expectations for our property. They then<br />

exceeded these expectations in less than 2 weeks. We should of gone<br />

with the best first time around.<br />
