In the draft Long Term Plan, funding for the Tuckers to Sturrocks Road section of the Northern Line cycleway is deferred by two years – it is now planned to be constructed in 2021 rather than 2019. This section (pictured in this 2016 photo) has a well-worn ‘desire line’ which indicates that many people already use it, despite safety issues. A delay in providing safer access for cyclists and pedestrians may not be just about deferring Council spending – as reported in 2017, negotiations between the Council and KiwiRail over the use of the rail corridor had almost reached a stalemate over “exorbitant” rental costings.

As reported in the Nor’West News, following a consultation process in 2017 over use of the land in the Cranford Basin, the City Council is negotiating with developers over construction of houses in the area. So far an agreement has been signed for the delivery of 40 houses by the end of 2020, with 370 houses expected once development is complete. More details can be found on p.7 of last week’s edition, available online at https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/view/59892157/norwest-news-march-13-2018.

One way to learn more about the Christchurch City Council Long Term Plan is to get down to one of our Christchurch City Libraries and pick up a copy of these documents. Our libraries also have a bound copy of the full draft plan for people who love the details! All this consultation information has been sighted locally by Think Papanui in both the Papanui and Redwood libraries, and no doubt all other libraries across the city will have it too.
