The cost to park at the council’s Lichfield St car park building will also rise from $2.80 an hour to $4 – a 43 per cent increase. The rate at the Art Gallery car park doubles from $2 an hour to $4.
By comparison, people are charged $4.50 an hour to park in central Wellington and $2.50 on the weekend. Auckland charges $5 an hour for the first two hours and then $10 per hour after that.
The on-street fee hikes are expected to generate $660,000 of additional revenue for Christchurch. That figure would have been $960,000, but the council planned to waive the credit card fees and pay them itself, at a cost of $300,000.
The increase in off-street parking charges is expected to bring in an extra $162,000.

What a pleasure to meet Hayley Parsons of Clarks Beach, Auckland. She and husband Chris relocated this huge three-storey villa from Palmerston North to Auckland, and project managed the rebuild of Huntly House from London. Wonderful house, wonderful history.

Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, ages, orientations and genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.
There are many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck or film screening to providing prevention information / resources in other languages, there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their first language or ensuring local footpaths are clear and accessible.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re creating inclusive communities this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

playground. This is education 1959-style.
By the 1950s, teachers are beginning to embrace "real experience", in preference to reciting sets of rules, as a foundation for meaningful learning. With boards placed strategically on the ground to mark street kerbs, and striped mats denoting pedestrian crossings, the school courts have been converted into a city intersection for simulated traffic activities. The traffic officer at centre appears satisfied with the hand signals of the cyclist and the driver of pedal car 6.

New suburbs sprang up and essential services spread ever further afield, even to Diamond Harbour. This was still a rural village in 1954 but was beginning to take on the appearance of a Christchurch suburb.
A regular link with Lyttelton by launch and frequent passenger trains through the tunnel made it feasible for city workers to live at Diamond Harbour.
Here building nears completion on the community centre and two family homes, while workers lay a telephone cable beside the road to Charteris Bay.

The council decided on Monday to complete its 101-kilometre network of cycleways by 2028 – one year earlier than proposed in the draft LTP, but still 11 years later than expected when the network was first proposed in 2013.
It also decided to bring forward a cycleway connection from Westmorland to the Nor’West Arc cycleway from 2031 to 2025.
The council also decided to spend $931m over 10 years on roads and footpaths and $96.7m on public transport infrastructure, including bus stops and shelters.
