Nor’West News: changes to Council roading projects

Today’s Nor’West News reports on proposed changes to roading and transport projects in the area, as the Council revises the Annual Plan in light of the COVID-19 crisis. Where funding has been taken out of the coming year’s budget, Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Board chair Emma Norrish says that projects “will still happen, they have only been deferred.” Next door in Harewood Ward, Councillor Keown is advocating for deeper cuts to achieve a zero rates rise, but also for funding to be brought forward to implement lights at the Harewood/Gardiners/Breens intersection.
