What's one highway or road that needs attention?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.

If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this … View more

If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.

Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!

A progressive disease
I wasn’t an overweight child, but from as young as 5 years I can recall comparing myself unfavourably with two painfully thin twins in my dance class and thinking that was what I was supposed to look like. I’m not sure how I got the idea that I should be very thin.

Anna and Adam

The Team from Humans of Christchurch Ōtautahi

"I went to Australia in 2010 with the intention of being there six months. I got offered a full time job as an assistant winemaker, so I decided to stay. Our winery wasn't set up for processing our whites, we did it at a contract facility which was Adam's work and I met Adam there.

"I went to Australia in 2010 with the intention of being there six months. I got offered a full time job as an assistant winemaker, so I decided to stay. Our winery wasn't set up for processing our whites, we did it at a contract facility which was Adam's work and I met Adam there.
I always wanted to one day have my own brand. We came up with a concept while we were in Australia, it was a little side project. Each variety has its own native bird. That was one priority; to have a really distinctive label.

We moved back to New Zealand in 2020.

We were looking around Christchurch and I stumbled on Riverside Market. We approached them about putting in a cellar door. We did a pop up in September 2020 that did really well, so we decided to give it a shot. My dad is a retired builder, and all the bar tops came off an oak tree that got cut down on my neighbours property growing up.
I grew up between Christchurch and North Canterbury, I love the lifestyle here, I'm not a big city girl. I’ve always been a runner. I run because I love it and plan adventures around it for the challenge. We love hiking and take our dog Pippin as well.

Adam loves his golf…."

- Anna

"I do like playing golf. If I'm managing my time well, I’ll play a couple of times a week.

I went to Adelaide University, Anna went to Lincoln. Once I finally got into the industry and got a job with people that had some belief in me, I got more and more passionate about it.

Wine making is something we are very comfortable with. We are very much aligned with our wine making styles. The name comes from us having fun making the wines. With a lot of pretentiousness around wine, we wanted to steer away from that. so we came up with ‘Mischief’ over a few wines whilst holidaying in Arrowtown.

We're just coming up to vintage, So another year of making new wines. Between February and May, don't try and book us in for anything. It's just not gonna happen. At the end of that period, you wonder why you do it, but once you get into it, you look forward to it each year.

I've only ever seen Christchurch after the earthquakes. Being part of the community at Riverside we’ve watched the city rejuvenate. it's a really vibrant place to be, there's a strong heartbeat in the City.”
