The Hearings Panel for the Papanui to University section of Te Ara O-Rakipaoa Nor’West Arc Cycleway has finished considering submissions and has made recommendations for the cycleway design. Recommendations were made following the consideration of written submissions, hearing from submitters, a site visit, and Q&A with staff, and include: the one-way cycleway option on Ilam Road; the two-way cycleway option on Aorangi Road; and a number of detailed recommendations relating to specific aspects of the design. Final decisions will be made by the Council’s Urban Development and Transport Committee, early in the New Year. Click through to read the full Hearings Panel minutes:

Registered participants will have access to all workshops, covering topics including: Blended Families; Youth Mental Health & Wellbeing; Parenting Pre-schoolers; Parenting in a Digital Age; and more. There’s still time to register and due to the format change there is no limit on numbers. Click through for details of all the workshops and to register: https://nht.org.nz/parenting-adventures-2021/

Now happening ONLINE! What an Adventure we have been on. We had hoped to run Parenting Adventures in person this weekend but feedback was that the new date wasn’t suitable for many people. Therefore, this affected our registration numbers which are now too low to be able to run this as planned. However we will run this event ONLINE so you can listen to all our amazing speakers – in your own time.

There will be a link sent out to you this Friday 26th Nov to access the event – but you MUST be registered. There’s still time to register and we have no limit on numbers so please share this far and wide! You will also have access to all speakers, not just the ones you may have previously signed up for. https://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/parenting-adventures-tickets-157726848249

We hope you will enjoy our quality speakers from the comfort of your own home.

Two new pedestrian crossing points are proposed for Langdons Road, following concerns raised by the local community and the Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board relating to traffic volumes and pedestrian/cycle safety. One crossing is outside the Northlink retail area, and the other is near Sails Street. The proposal is open for feedback until 13 December. Click through for more details and an online feedback form:
