What do you think of the plans for the South Express cycleway?
Hey neighbours,
The proposed South Express cycleway, which links Templeton to Hagley Park, will turn sections of residential streets into culs-de-sac and also see about 65 trees replaced.
New traffic signals will be added at 11 intersections along the route.
The work is part of the council's $252m major cycleways programme that will see suburbs connected to the central city through 13 separate routes.
What do you think of the plans? How will the roading changes affect you? Do you think this is the best use of the NZ Transport Agency's funding?

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!
