Poll: Do you support the construction of the Belfast to Kaiapoi cycleway?
The construction of part of a North Canterbury cycleway has been put on hold after affected residents raised concerns about safety and losing parking spaces.
Kaiapoi’s Peraki St was meant to form part of the Waimakariri District Council’s new Belfast to Kaiapoi cycleway, but residents say they have safety concerns due to the potential increase in cyclists, reduction in parking, and the effect of proposed traffic-calming measures including speed humps.
What do you think about the proposed cycleway? Is it a good idea, or is it going in the wrong place? Or do you think it's unnecessary altogether? Read more here and tell us what you think in the comments below.

Kmart duvet recall
Kmart will be recalling a number of their Anko duvet sets.
What you need to know:
- The recall is involving Christmas-themed duvets: Mrs & Mrs Claus Reversible Queen Size Bed Quilt Cover Set and Christmas Elf Reversible Single Bed Quilt Cover Set
- A recall of the products began in Australia following health concerns from several families.
- One woman said she thought she was having a heart attack after using one of the products which smelt of diesel.
- One customer said she’d purchased the quilt covers and said they smelled like gas. Another mum said hers did not have that smell but claimed her son developed a rash that only went away when he stopped using the product.
- The product is no longer available for purchase on the Kmart website.
Regardless of whether you have experienced an issue, customers who have purchased this item may return the product to store for a refund.
