The bridge over the Avon River in central Christchurch has no opening date, even though construction has finished.
It was built and funded by Crown rebuild agency Ōtākaro as part of regeneration plans for the city after the earthquakes.
But the metal balustrades, designed to be reminiscent of harakeke/flax plants, have already started corroding, prompting an investigation by the bridge’s design and construction teams.

Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.
Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽

Hosting people, the love of animals, and plant-based food.
These are the three key elements behind Sumner’s latest vegan cafe, Bonobo, owned by Christchurch man Deane Simmonds and his Dutch partner Annelies Basten.
The cafe’s name is derived from the eponymous species of ape, which is often referred to as humans’ closest relative.
Opened last week, the cafe is a fundraiser for the couple’s long-term goal of buying land and opening their own animal sanctuary to rescue farm animals.

He is accompanied by his mother and older brother, and previous plans have fallen through. The home would need to have 2 bedrooms available. Ideally, it would be needed for around 12 months as there will be two surgeries, each needing 6 months rehabilitation. However, short-term would be okay as a stop-gap.
The family are quietly spoken, and can give references. Somewhere on the north side of the city would be helpful, but anything will be considered. If you can help, or recommend a contact, please contact me at 022 384 7466.

Local resident, Kate Fraser, recently moved to The Bellevue and loves the convenience of apartment living. “When I walked in the door, I knew immediately I was going to live here.” On a typical day you could start out with a barista-made coffee and a treat at the café, get in your steps at the gym, or join neighbours for a game of pool before moving to happy hour. “The village has a feeling of a resort hotel. I thought — it reminds me of that hotel in Spain.” Kate added.
Call Brenda today on 0800 333 688 and stop by for a coffee and something delicious from the chef to get a taste for The Bellevue lifestyle.
We’re just down the road at 21 Windermere Road, Papanui, Christchurch.
