SAFE RIDING: The city council is proposing to add three new road crossings to the City to Sea Pathway.<br />
Safe crossings for shared path<br />
THREE SAFE new road crossings<br />
are planned along the route of the<br />
City to Sea Pathway<br />
Community feedback has<br />
opened on the proposals which<br />
are part of the pathway, a planned<br />
11-kilometre walking and cycling<br />
path following the course of the<br />
Ōtākaro Avon River from Oxford<br />
Tce to Pages Rd, New Brighton.<br />
The pathwat will be constructed<br />
in three stages:<br />
European<br />
Car Owners<br />
NEW DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT!<br />
• Western section – from<br />
Fitzgerald Ave to Kerrs Rd.<br />
• Eastern section – from Kerrs<br />
Rd to Wainoni Rd.<br />
• Wainoni to Waitaki section –<br />
from Wainoni Rd to Pages Rd.<br />
The western section will be<br />
constructed first and includes<br />
three new road crossings on<br />
Stanmore Rd, Swanns Rd and<br />
Gayhurst Rd.<br />
The community will be able<br />
HIKING BOOTS<br />
& SHOES<br />
to view details of the planned<br />
crossings and give feedback until<br />
<strong>March</strong> 24. Staff will also be at two<br />
community events where people<br />
can see the plans, ask questions,<br />
and give feedback in person.<br />
The events include a community<br />
drop-in at Dallington<br />
Landing on Saturday from 10amnoon,<br />
and the Richmond Gala at<br />
Avebury House on <strong>March</strong> 23 from<br />
10am-2pm.<br />
Dave Little, Red zone manager,<br />
said the pathway is expected to be<br />
popular.<br />
“We’ve heard from the<br />
community that they currently feel<br />
unsafe when crossing some of the<br />
roads, due to poor visibility, high<br />
speeds, and no dedicated crossing<br />
points.”<br />
The crossings will lower speeds<br />
and make it safer for pathway<br />
users, Little said.<br />
Coastguard<br />
fundraising<br />
for new<br />
permanent<br />
premises<br />
COASTGUARD Canterbury is<br />
fundraising for new headquarters<br />
after years of temporary<br />
buildings.<br />
The February 22, 2011<br />
earthquake damaged the<br />
Lyttelton-based organisation’s<br />
Naval Point building. It was<br />
demolished last year ahead of<br />
SailGP.<br />
Since then, the coastguard<br />
has been based in temporary<br />
accommodation in portacoms at<br />
the Naval Point public jetty.<br />
The city council, community<br />
and iwi have had input on the<br />
design and location of the new<br />
building, near the public slipway.<br />
The new headquarters will<br />
feature meeting and training<br />
rooms. There will also be a radio<br />
room with a harbour lookout.<br />
Secure storage for the rescue boat<br />
and trailer will be installed.<br />
