Council roading and transport manager Joanne McBride said the speed review aligned with several upcoming major changes to roads in the area, including new traffic lights at Tram Rd, the creation of a shared path along Main North Rd, and upgrades to SH1.
If approved, the speed limit on Main North Rd, Tram Rd, Doubledays Rd and several side streets would be dropped to 60kmh. Read more here.

Unfortunately, we don't have a bike for him to ride and I don't want our mentor to have to pay for one. I was wondering if anyone had a push bike that would be suitable for a 11 year old boy lying around that they no longer use? If you do, and you would like to donate it to Big Brothers Big Sisters North Canterbury, you can rest assured knowing that it will be going to a child who will get a lot of use out of it and the enjoyment and fun they will have with their mentor will be ongoing. Thanks in advance!

Are you, your children or grandchildren getting involved in Halloween this year? Stuff and The Press newspaper would love to hear from you.
We are hoping to find out how things may be a little bit different for Halloween this year due to Covid-19, and to see how people are still pushing through with their celebrations.
Will you be wearing a face mask with your costume? Or offering hand sanitiser to trick or treaters? Whatever it is you're up to, we'd love to hear about it.
Please comment below or email jake.kenny@stuff.co.nz if you are celebrating Halloween this year and would like to share how.
Thanks in advance folks!
