If approved, Adventure Ave would be built be on unused land north of Woodchester Ave in Richmond. It would offer plenty of green space, outdoor activities such as featuring swings, bike tracks, tree huts, and a food court.

The project still faces several hurdles, including an estimated $30,000 built cost and rules limiting transitional projects in the red zone to a five-year lease.

A major sports hub and new cemetery may soon become neighbours on the outskirts of Christchurch.

The city's 27 cemeteries are nearly full, so the city council is looking into developing a new one on land it owns in Templeton.

A new sports centre could be a major boost for the small town, where some residents are gearing up to fight plans for a new quarry nearby.

The development would be on a parcel of 100 hectares on Maddisons Rd – two thirds reserved for the cemetery and the remainder for the sports site.
