One traffic lane on SH1 (southbound) between Empire Road and Chaneys overbridge needs to be closed for us to do this work. The Tram Road on-ramp will also need to close during morning peak hours only.

From Thursday 3 January 2019 one of the two southbound lanes will be closed till 13 January. From 13 to 20 January we will shift the traffic lanes; this will narrow the lanes and you will have to reduce speed, so this could still delay your journey.

The Tram Road on-ramp closure will be in place from Monday 7 January to 13 January, during morning peak hours only. Please use the Old Waimakariri River Bridge/Main North Road or use the Ohoka Road on-ramp.

Ideal for someone who has the time and inclination to iron and on sell on trade me. The value of these items run into thousands and include lables such as Pagani, Brown Sugar, Laura Ashley, Marks & Spencer, Wallis, Monsoon and many more too numerous to mention.
There are about 6 large black sacks full and I have thrown in a red super king duvet cover and 2 pillow slips.
Buyer can collect from Oxford Estate or may be able to deliver.
If interested please text me on 027 709 9029

Today's the day to let go of all that pre-Christmas stress and connect with the meaning of Christmas. Why not come along to the Ashley Christmas Eve Carol Service. A short programme of readings and carols -
7 pm this evening at 39 Canterbury Street, Ashley.
The service will be lead by Paul Askin and our pianist will be Tony Gouedard. We expect to be finished by 8 pm and there is supper to follow. A couple of things to bear in mind are that we do not have a toilet so do 'go' before you come; and the grounds are very wet. Cars will be able to use the drive for drop off if necessary but all parking will be on the street today. Your donations received during the Collection will go towards the ongoing maintenance and restoration of our Category 2 Heritage Building.

Now is a good time to make a basic will, especially if you don't already have one. And here’s an online resource that makes it possible - literally NOW! For just $49.45 incl GST! So don’t wait!

MAKE A WILL! Especially if you want to include step-children or whangai, or if you have repartnered or separated, or (males) if there could be other children you don't know about or don't want to know about, or if you don't have children and don't want your distant relatives to be the beneficiaries if you and your partner are both killed in the same tragic accident....

Answer the questions, download the Word document, print it, and sign it in front of two adults who are not beneficiaries in the will. (Confession time - we are selling it, but we didn't write it. We've tried it out and it's okay although there are bits we would tweak if we were writing it from scratch.)

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.

Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!

Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
