Here’s an update on the chlorination status of each pump station in the Papanui area, from Councillor Mike Davidson:

These are the pump stations in or close to the Papanui ward – the current status of these pump stations are:

Grampian – Reduced chlorine dosage and identified as one of the first pump stations for remedial work so chlorine can be removed.
Grassmere – Chlorine dose not reduced, but identified as one of the first pump stations for remedial work so chlorine can be removed.
Mays – Reduced chlorine dosage and identified as one of the first pump stations for remedial work so chlorine can be removed.
Blighs – Reduced chlorine dosage.
Redwood – Chlorine dose not reduced.
Farrington – Chlorine dose not reduced, but identified as one of the first pump stations for remedial work so chlorine can be removed.
Trafalgar – Reduced chlorine dosage.
Gardiners – Not chlorinated.

Due to demands on the network the pump station closest to you may not always be supplying water to your home.

A total of 7 pump stations have been identified for the first remedial work and once completed will make 11 pump stations chlorine free – 25% of the city’s water supply.
Once the best remedial action is determined for the remaining pump stations it will be reported back to Council so these can also be progressed.

Speed limits on the top end of Harewood and Sawyers Arms Roads, and along Gardiners and Styx Mill Roads, are set to drop soon following a decision last week by the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board. Harewood Rd will drop to 50km/hr, and Sawyers Arms, Gardiners, and Styx Mill Roads to 60km/hr. Full details of the proposal can be found in the Board’s agenda (http://christchurch.infocouncil.biz/Open/2018/06/FWHB_20180605_AGN_2575_AT_WEB.htm), and the final decision in the minutes from the meeting (http://christchurch.infocouncil.biz/Open/2018/06/FWHB_20180605_MIN_2575_AT.PDF).
