Changes needed to stop Christchurch congestion from getting as bad as Auckland's
Christchurch's population is forecast to grow to about 640,000 people by 2048. If travel patterns remain unchanged, that would lead to a 20 per cent increase in the number of car trips to and from the central city by 2038, and a 34 per cent increase by 2048.
The most congested roads in Christchurch currently are Papanui and Main North roads heading north, Riccarton and Blenheim roads heading southwest, and Brougham St/State Highway 76. Brougham St alone carries about 50,000 cars daily.
What do you think? How can we reduce congestion in Greater Christchurch? Do we need better public transport, more cycleways, or changes to roads? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
Premature theft
Increasing the cost of fuel in anticipation before any actual justification I regard as blatant premeditated theft.
The CEO's who condone this premature theft for their share holders BEFORE they have any justified reasons will not be so quick and prematurely reduce the price when the situation is reduced.
Nor if the situation is quickly restored will they arrange payback if they have over reacted.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
