Visitors applaud Christchurch Hospital's improved Deans Ave shuttle service

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Christchurch Hospital patients and visitors have welcomed upgrades to a park-and-ride site once described as a “potholed mess”.

The car park, which has 200 spaces for patients and visitors and up to 150 for staff, is sealed, lit and offers covered shelters for those waiting for a shuttle to Christchurch Hospital.

Staveley housewife Judy Vaughan​, 63, used the shuttle to get to her hospital appointment on Monday.

She said the Deans Ave site was easy to find and the shuttle was a "good service", which she would recommend to friends.

What are your thoughts on the new service?

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!
