Christchurch salt water hot pools 'on track' for March opening
Christchurch's seaside salt water hot pools are on track to open in late March.
Development Christchurch Limited says work at the New Brighton site is "on track" to finish soon, but an exact opening date was not finalised.
The $11.2 million complex, called He Puna Taimoana, is being built on Marine Pde next to the beachfront children's playground.
It will have five outdoor pools ranging in temperature from about 28 degrees Celsius to 40C, a sauna and steam room, cafe, changing facilities and seating areas.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
