New $3 million footbridge design for Christchurch's Avon River confirmed
Designs for a new footbridge over Christchurch's Avon River will not have the flair of a now-abandoned "art bridge" proposed for the site.
Crown rebuild company Ōtākaro will manage the build of the 32-metre bridge that runs between Cambridge and Oxford terraces, near the Margaret Mahy playground.
