Thursday March 28 2024 The Star Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz NEWS 17 BURNT OUT: A deliberately lit pallet fire parked outside an Addington apartment complex left two cars extensively damaged on Tuesday night and sent smoke billowing through the neigbourhood. PHOTO: CHRIS BARCLAY ‘Troublemakers’ blamed for pallet fire A DELIBERATELY lit pallet fire extensively damaged two cars parked outside an Addington apartment complex on Tuesday night. Police confirmed the fire was being treated as suspicious after two people were seen near the wooden pallets shortly before the fire broke out in Walsall St about 7pm. Witness Connor Nicholson- Plank said the scene was “pretty hectic”, with emergency services battling the “massive fire”. He told the New Zealand Herald he spoke with a police officer who told him “a couple of troublemakers” set the pallets on fire. Residents were advised to close windows as thick plumes of smoke enveloped the area until Fire and Emergency New Zealand crews extinguished the blaze around 7.30pm. An ambulance was also dispatched to the scene as a precaution. Police were scanning CCTV cameras in the vicinity in a bid to identify the men. BLACK SPOT: Over the last 10 years there have been 27 crashes at this roundabout. The city council will be installing several safety measures. Upgrades coming for dangerous intersection WORK ON essential safety improvements to the busy Cashmere Rd/Colombo St/ Centaurus Rd/Dyers Pass Rd roundabout will get under way after Easter weekend. There have been 27 crashes at the roundabout over the last 10 years and the city council will be installing several safety measures. The work includes installing safe speed measures, designed to slow traffic, on all four approaches to the intersection. The measures will give motorists more time to react and avoid a crash and the slower speeds will help reduce the impact of a crash, a city council spokesperson said. The works involve new kerb alignments, footpath improvements and new road markings as well as installing a concrete lip around the centre of the roundabout to help reduce the speed of travel. There will be several traffic management layouts implemented while the work is completed, including a variation of temporary traffic lights, shoulder closures, lane drops and temporary on-street parking removal. Work is expected to finish in early July.
