road closure<br />
• From page 1<br />
“Subject to resource consent,<br />
the southern part of Milns Rd<br />
will be realigned through the<br />
subdivision. As part of that work,<br />
the existing southern section will<br />
be closed.<br />
“The anticipated<br />
timeframe is May<br />
2026. However,<br />
this is dependent<br />
upon private<br />
development and<br />
outside of the<br />
Stephen<br />
Wright<br />
council’s control.”<br />
Implementation<br />
will be covered<br />
by a private<br />
development agreement between<br />
the city council and the developer,<br />
and will align with Long Term<br />
Plan capital projects.<br />
A report on the new road,<br />
which was discussed at the<br />
community board meeting,<br />
follows two briefings in<br />
September 2022.<br />
It said the city council will likely<br />
only have this opportunity, as<br />
once the land is developed there<br />
will be no practical alternative<br />
solution to the problems being<br />
experienced at the intersection.<br />
When community, culture<br />
and cuisine converge<br />
COLOURFUL FLAGS and<br />
traditional garments were<br />
on show at Arvida Mayfair<br />
village’s international food and<br />
dance event last week.<br />
The Upper Riccarton<br />
retirement community<br />
has more than 22 different<br />
nationalities represented by its<br />
residents and team members,<br />
and the event was a celebration<br />
of diversity and inclusion.<br />
Arvida Mayfair village<br />
manager Vicky Knipe said<br />
more than 80 people enjoyed<br />
the day, including residents’<br />
families.<br />
“The centrepiece was the<br />
large display of flags that were<br />
actually sewn together by one<br />
of our residents. It represented<br />
our diverse backgrounds that<br />
come together to form our<br />
community.”<br />
A haka, traditional Nepalese<br />
and Filipino dances, classical<br />
Indian dance, a Japanese choir<br />
and dynamic West African<br />
drumming were highlights<br />
from the day.<br />
The performances were<br />
matched by the selection of<br />
fresh international cuisines for<br />
everyone to enjoy.<br />
