Christchurch council removes 840 rubbish bins from parks, adds 100 'smart bins'

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

More than 200 Christchurch parks will be left without rubbish bins when the city council finishes removing 840 of them across the city.

About 100 “smart” bins will be installed instead, but 211 “low-use” neighbourhood parks will have their bins taken away and not returned.

More than 200 Christchurch parks will be left without rubbish bins when the city council finishes removing 840 of them across the city.

About 100 “smart” bins will be installed instead, but 211 “low-use” neighbourhood parks will have their bins taken away and not returned.

The smart bins are bigger and are equipped with sensor technology that provides the council’s maintenance contractor with daily information on how full each bin is.

Council head of parks Andrew Rutledge​ said the data meant the contractor only needed to send crews out to empty the bins when required, saving time and money.

In areas without bins, the council encouraged people to take any rubbish home with them, and put it in their red wheelie bin.

Cat hit by a car on Normans Road

Jo from Bryndwr

I just witnessed a cat being hit by a car. The driver stopped and I helped him locate the cat as it had scuttled into the STAC playground. We put it in his car and he said he was going to take it to the vet. The cat was alert but had possibly broken its back.

We put it in his car and he said he was going to take it to the vet. The cat was alert but had possibly broken its back. It’s a beautiful black cat with green eyes. Sorry if it’s yours.

Employees of the Addington railway workshops pedal homeward on a cold July evening in
1946.

The workshops stood at what is now Tower Junction. They built, maintained and repaired railway stock and were a major employer in Christchurch.

The Christchurch terrain suited cycling and the city was known for its bikes. Few workers owned cars, so bikes and trams dominated city streets after the 5pm knock-off time.

The 40-hour week and eight-hour working day, introduced 10 years earlier but in general practice only from 1946, contributed to the 5 o'clock rush.

Use it or lose it - Your Local Pharmacy

Marina from Avonhead

Once our community pharmacies are gone they won't come back, leaving the market to the intruders - in this case Australian giants Chemist Warehouse and Countdown with their in-store pharmacies. The intruders don't charge the dispensing fee to lure customers in but they still have to pay it to the government. I know in many households money is tight and 5 Dollars can go a long way. But if you can - please continue to support our local pharmacists. I would hate to lose the knowledge many of these pharmacists have accumulated and I have saved many doctors visits by simply talking to our pharmacist. I go to Hei Hei pharmacy in Wycola Ave.
