This month we want to challenge Neighbourhood Supporters to come together and give generously from the heart this holiday season. With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about others, especially those having a difficult time.

Whether it’s an elderly neighbour who lives alone to a family on your street working hard to make ends meet, reach out to someone who could use a little extra joy in their life and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!

Other ideas include fundraising for a local charity, doing a food or toy drive, organising a ‘Secret Santa’ gift exchange on your street, giving a present to a neighbour who helped to make your 2020 better, or even host a community Christmas lunch.

Let us know how you’re giving back in your community in December by emailing: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz

Opponents of Christchurch's Northern Corridor vow to fight on

A decades-long battle against a motorway in their backyard has been lost, but residents of an inner-Christchurch suburb say they will not give up the fight to reduce its impact.

A decades-long battle against a motorway in their backyard has been lost, but residents of an inner-Christchurch suburb say they will not give up the fight to reduce its impact.

The city’s long-awaited $290 million Northern Corridor motorway will partially open on Monday, to help bed in the chip seal surface before all four lanes open in mid-December.

The corridor extends the Christchurch Northern Motorway through to QEII Drive and Cranford St, and is designed to make travel times in and out of the city shorter.

On Thursday, the Christchurch City Council will vote on a new lane on Cranford St, between Innes Rd and Berwick St, and what it will be used for.

A report from a traffic engineer initially recommended a clearway, to help deal with traffic coming off the Northern Corridor, but this was met with fierce pushback from locals.

Councillors are now looking into a three-month trial of a bus lane.

Members of the St Albans Residents Association will be at the meeting, armed with banners and placards.

Some locals have opposed the Northern Corridor since its inception, with plans to run a motorway through the area into the heart of Christchurch in the pipeline since the 1960s.

What are your thoughts on the new Northern Corridor?
