The Team from Waimakariri District Council

Tram Road will be closed between Earlys Road and Tallotts Road, between the hours of 7am and 6pm from 14 October for pavement rehabilitation work.

We will be carrying out pavement rehabilitation (granular overlay) on Tram Road. The work will start on Monday 14 October 2024 and is planned to take 5-6 weeks to complete (weather permitting).

The road will reopen to west bound traffic only with a reduced speed limit in place overnight.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
