From reporter Tina Law:

KiwiRail is putting communities at risk by causing delays to work on cycleways across Christchurch, a city councillor warns.

The state-owned enterprise tasked with managing the country’s rail network is being blamed by the Christchurch City Council for delays on at least four cycleway projects – all of which were supposed to be fast-tracked thanks to Government shovel-ready funding.

The proposed cycleway routes either cross or run parallel to KiwiRail’s tracks, therefore design changes are needed to make it safer for cyclists.

However, the design work requires approval from KiwiRail, and in many cases these have not been forthcoming or KiwiRail and the council disagree about the level of work that is required. Read the full story here.

Double Sofa Bed - Moss Green Velour

We’ve had this sofa bed for about 40 years, and it will easily last another 40. It has not been used very often.

Moss green velour, generally in very good condition, with a few marks and snags where the cats have used it for sharpening their claws. It has a metal frame, and is quite heavy to move but it's ready for collection just a few steps from a vehicle. Dimensions are approx 190x90cm, and the wire springs are 137x184cm. We usually put a mattress topper on it as the mattress it comes with is relatively thin.

Pick up is the bottom of Huntsbury with easy access.

Price: $300
