Hi Canterbury,

Addington Raceway was a sell-out for the annual New Zealand Trotting Cup, the most prestigious and richest harness racing event in the country.

With the event attracting racegoers around Aotearoa, officials agree that this race has a positive impact on the local economy. On the other side, animal rights activists SAFE states that using horses for sport puts immense pressure on a horse's anatomy and that the sport should not be continued.

Do you think horse racing should be banned?

Speed limits on some roads in Yaldhurst will be lowered at the beginning of December according to Christchurch City Council.

Slower speed limits are proposed for State Highway 73 extending west through the Yaldhurst township. The existing speed limits were 80km/h and 100km/h, with 70km/h through Yaldhurst town centre.

A limit of 60km/h is proposed for the urban fringe and Yaldhurst town centre with a reduction to 80km/h for the west of Yaldhurst, while the intervening rural section east of Yaldhurst is to remain at 80km/h.

Changes were also made for Ryans, Pound, Hasketts and School roads.

The speed limits for these roads are being reduced from 70km/h or 80km/h to 60km/h. Sections of Ryans, Hasketts and School roads have already been changed. Remaining changes on Ryans and Pound roads will be coordinated with changes to SH73.
