The intersection of Tuam and High streets currently has 20 traffic light poles, which were installed by the Christchurch City Council in October 2016.

The council is set to reduce the number of signal poles to six as part of its long-term plan for revitalising High St between Cashel, St Asaph and Manchester streets, and extending the street's tram route.

About $6.7m has been set aside for the High St revamp and about $2.9m for the proposed tram extensions. Read the full story here.

Greater Christchurch has overwhelmingly voted red – giving Labour all but two of its electorate seats and the majority of the party vote.

Labour supporters at the party's election event in Christchurch on Saturday night were barely able to keep a lid on their excitement and glee at National’s astonishingly poor performance in the city – and their knives came out for their parliamentary colleagues in Blue.

“At last, Christchurch has woken up,” said Duncan Webb, Christchurch Central’s incumbent.

“It’s been a long campaign, exhausting, but the reward you get for that, it’s amazing.

Road closures for Christchurch’s new stadium create gridlock rush-hour traffic

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The Christchurch City Council has closed Cashel and Lichfield streets between Madras and Barbadoes streets so lights, power and internet cables, and underground service pipes can be removed or rerouted before early work on the city's long-awaited $473 million multi-use arena begins.

The Christchurch City Council has closed Cashel and Lichfield streets between Madras and Barbadoes streets so lights, power and internet cables, and underground service pipes can be removed or rerouted before early work on the city's long-awaited $473 million multi-use arena begins.

The right-hand lanes of Barbadoes and Madras streets have also been closed temporarily, between Tuam and Hereford streets, with no word yet on when they will reopen.

Council vertical capital delivery manager Alistair Pearson said drivers regularly using Cashel and Lichfield streets will need to travel down either Tuam or Hereford streets, and those closed stretches were unlikely to ever reopen. Read more here.
