So a decision on what will happen to the section of Cranford St from Innes Rd to Berwick St won't be made till sometime in the middle of next year. Options being considered for the section include clearways and making the lane accessible only to high occupancy vehicles (ie: one or more passengers)
Why did a cul de sac appear where Forfar St crosses Warrington St and will streets like Francis Ave face increased traffic instead?

The saga of Cranford St has had many twists and turns, including one about the use of the extra lane between Innes Rd and Berwick St. Some ideas for stay at home holidays (mostly in St Albans) completes a Christmas feature. But before we get to Christmas find out what was going on in Abberley Park on the last day of October.

The Japanese native and long-term Cantabrian recently won outstanding barista of the year at the Canterbury Hospitality Awards, and said he didn’t know he was nominated until one of his customers told him.
Stationed at Riverside Market in the central city since October 2019, Takai’s Espresso Studio by Fushoken has become a staple caffeine hotspot for many who work in the CBD.
Takai found out about his nomination two weeks prior to the ceremony when a customer began to congratulate him. Confused, he searched Facebook and found his name with a list of nominees and decided he would go to the ceremony, but never expected to win.
“I was so happy. To be nominated in the top four was great, but to win the award was special.”
Takai has developed a strong regular customer base in just under a year – estimating that about 70 per cent of his customers had been there before.
Have you been to Takai's coffee shop?
