Solutions edge closer for Southshore, South New Brighton

Proposed options costing about $12.5 million addressing erosion and flood risk in Southshore and South New Brighton will be considered by the Christchurch City Council on Thursday.

The council is proposing to replace or cover structures along the estuary edge in Southshore to reduce erosion risk. They say this approach has community support, and would also significantly improve the appearance of the estuary edge.

To reduce the risk of flooding in Southshore, council recommend the construction of an 11.4 RL bund close to the current Land Information New Zealand bund.

In South New Brighton, council proposes restoring the estuary edge with a cobble beach.

To reduce the flooding risk, council recommends a new bund be set up to 100 metres from the estuary edge within South New Brighton park, between the jetty near Beatty St and the southern end of the campground in Halsey St.

These options are in response to several council resolutions from August last year regarding earthquake legacy issues.

The proposed options to address erosion and flooding risk are forecast to cost about $12.5 million. The draft 2021-31 long term plan allows for $10.5m.

Three pedestrian and cycle bridges crossing the Ōtākaro Avon River are a step closer to reality after the Christchurch City Council's finance and performance committee gave the green light to proceed with their design, procurement and construction.

The Medway St and Snell Pl bridges reinstate a pedestrian/cycle connection across the Ōtākaro Avon River, which has been missing since the earthquakes.

The Avondale Bridge is a new bridge that will provide a connection to the future Eastern Reach wetland restoration area.

The three bridges, and a new riverside landing in Dallington, are being funded by a $13.7 million grant from the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust.

Finance and performance committee chair and deputy mayor Andrew Turner said the bridges will help reconnect communities on each side of the Ōtākaro Avon River.

All three bridges will be single-span, made from steel truss, with concrete decks and sliding, jackable abutments.

Work on constructing the bridges is expected to start in early 2021.

Christchurch City Council will decide on Thursday whether to push ahead with the construction of the bridges, which will cost $11.5 million to build.

The bridges will be funded by the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust.

The structures will be part of the green spine, a network of trails and green areas that hug the banks of the river between the city centre and New Brighton.

The Medway St and the Snell Pl bridges both replace structures that have been missing since the earthquakes. The Avondale Bridge will provide a link from New Brighton Rd to Hulverstone Rd and a future wetland restoration area.
