Construction underway where three houses were demolished on the south side of the Foodstuffs offices on Main North Road is for an extension to the existing car park. This is not the part of the site to be occupied by Marian College or the future Pak’nSave supermarket.
Have you seen the new signage on the former Warehouse Stationery building behind the Papanui Library on Langdons Road? Think Papanui understands an indoor trampoline park will be opening here later this month.
Two health-related building projects are underway on the former Firestone site on Langdons Road. The Cancer Society Canterbury-West Coast will have patient accommodation and support services in one, and the Braintree Wellness Centre will support Cantabrians living with a neurological condition.
Update 12:40PM: the truck is gone and the road is fully open.
The right turn / U-turn for northbound traffic under the Main North Road bridges between Redwood & Belfast is currently blocked. The truck involved has a full load of concrete and it is unclear how long it will take to extricate it. Thanks to the alert member of the public who notified Think Papanui of this incident.
The Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board will meet this Friday 4 June at 9am in the Papanui boardroom. The agenda includes applications to the Board’s Discretionary Response Fund from: Papanui Toy Library; Papanui Leagues Club; St Albans Residents Association; and Northcote School. The meeting is open for the public to attend. Click through for the full agenda:

Agenda of Waipapa Papanui-Innes Community Board – 4 June 2021
There was a clean-up day planned for Papanui Bush this Friday 4 June 2021, but this has been postposed. The bush plantings are around the margins of a stormwater retention area, and as you can see it is currently holding a large amount of water. Photo credit: Parks Team, Christchurch City Council.
There are currently some issues with the waste water system in St Heliers Crescent in Aranui, and on the following streets in Shirley: Warden Street; Cargill Place; North Parade; Hope Street; Hercules Street.
The Council currently has sucker trucks out in Shirley to help with the situation, but for the next 24 hours residents in the area are asked to avoid doing washing, and to flush toilets only when absolutely necessary.
