Looking for reasonably priced full cargo barrier for 2008 HiAce van

Cherry from Heathcote Valley

Hi we have been quoted ridiculous amounts for a new one of these! Would be just as happy with a second hand one, just to keep dogs safely in back of van.

Please text even if you have an old or unused van cargo barrier, as it may be alterable. Alternatively if anyone makes these at a sensible … View more
Hi we have been quoted ridiculous amounts for a new one of these! Would be just as happy with a second hand one, just to keep dogs safely in back of van.

Please text even if you have an old or unused van cargo barrier, as it may be alterable. Alternatively if anyone makes these at a sensible price we would be happy to discuss. Please text 02102518818 to discuss further!

Many thanks neighbours and let’s hope 2021 is kinder to us than this year has been!

Hey Christchurch drivers,

One 270-metre stretch of bus lane in the Garden City cost drivers more than half a million dollars in fines in just 12 months.

Hey Christchurch drivers,

One 270-metre stretch of bus lane in the Garden City cost drivers more than half a million dollars in fines in just 12 months.

Nearly 6000 fines worth a total of $740,250 have been dished out for driving or parking in the city's bus lanes since the end of November last year, with just one bus lane responsible for well over half of that.

The stretch between Mona Vale and Deans Ave on Riccarton Rd, which opened in late 2018, has proven a major money-maker for the Christchurch City Council, netting the authority more than $560,000 in just 12 months. A total of 3828 fines were issued to drivers caught in the lane – an average of 319 a month.

Have you copped a bus lane fine before? What for, and where?

Cars parking over driveways.

Hi to everyone. There’s a church between Smith Street and Tilford Street and as a rate payer I am absolutely sick of these church goers parking over our driveways.

There’s a church between Smith Street and Tilford Street and as a rate payer I am absolutely sick of these church goers parking over our driveways. We ring the council they come out and ticket the offending cars but this still doesn’t seem to stop these people. What else can be done. They even park on the 10 minute park outside the dairy so therefore the diary owners are missing out on business.
