Throwback Thursday
This photograph from the Press Historic Collection was taken on Armagh St in central Christchurch at 2pm on May 14, 1971, when the number of cars was unusual for that time of the day. It was the school holidays and traffic had been particularly heavy.
Traffic and road safety are still big talking points in Christchurch. On Monday, the city council proposed dropping speeds on vast chunks of Christchurch roads to 30 or 40kph - and some to even 10kph - to improve safety.
