Poll: Should the speed be reduced on the road from Christchurch to Akaroa?
Hi neighbours,
Canterbury’s “highest risk route” will be under the spotlight as the public are asked to give their views on the road’s current speed limits.
Between 2011 and 2020, 75 people were killed or suffered serious injuries on the road between Christchurch and Akaroa.
Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) is now seeking feedback from communities on the Banks Peninsula and Christchurch to hear their views on what the speed limits should be.
Do you think the speed should be reduced along SH 75/73?
People can provide feedback by visiting the NZTA website or emailing chchtoakaroaspeeds@nzta.govt.nz.
Drop-in sessions will also take place at:
Te Hapua Halswell Centre, July 1, 3–6pm
Little River School, July 6, 3–6pm
Tai Tapu Hotel, July 6, 10am–1pm
The Gaiety Hall, Akaroa, July 10, 11am–2pm

We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
