Hi neighbours,

A cycle/skate/scooter track in Christchurch's central city has been extended to make use of vacant central city sites.

For both kids and adults to enjoy and work on their road skills, the detour track was unveiled on Wednesday to eager anticipation, after a month-long build.

Its location on the corner of Manchester St, Armagh St and Gloucester St in the central city takes advantage of vacant Fletcher Living sites that will eventually have apartments built on them.

Gap Filler project manager Damian Doyle said the track was a way of giving something back to the community and putting the sites to good use whilst they were temporarily vacant.

Doyle said he hoped initiatives such as this would have scope to become permanent in the future.

Poll: Covid-19: Do you think taxi, truck and bus drivers should be next in line for the vaccine?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours,

The transport industry is pushing for its drivers to be next in line for Covid-19 vaccinations after frontline health staff.

Unions and industry groups argue that taxi, truck and bus drivers face greater risk of exposure and should be a high priority in terms of getting a jab.
