Christchurch's population is forecast to grow to about 640,000 people by 2048. If travel patterns remain unchanged, that would lead to a 20 per cent increase in the number of car trips to and from the central city by 2038, and a 34 per cent increase by 2048.

The most congested roads in Christchurch currently are Papanui and Main North roads heading north, Riccarton and Blenheim roads heading southwest, and Brougham St/State Highway 76. Brougham St alone carries about 50,000 cars daily.
What do you think? How can we reduce congestion in Greater Christchurch? Do we need better public transport, more cycleways, or changes to roads? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.

The sign at the driveway entrance reads “no parking, private property”.
That has not stopped contractors using it as a parking spot while they build units next door.

Carole Anderton, a former Christchurch City Councillor and wife of the late Jim Anderton, lives at the end of that driveway.
She understood the need for more housing, but the work has been going on for about a month. The contractors, without asking, took down part of her tin fence, putting temporary fencing in its place.

For this Nelson collector, houseplants help her cope with health challenges. "It’s been proven that distraction is a really good pain relief and the plants gave me something to focus on and interrupt the pain pathways.”

The choice we are given is to take a new fixed plan for two years as insurance against rates going up or take a variable plan and hope for the best. The trick here is knowing what the future might hold around power prices? So does anyone have a crystal ball? Any insights?

We have some leftover plywood after a recent project - hoping someone else is in need of plywood for a project of their own!
We have 2 pieces that are 45cm x 120 cm, and 4 pieces that are 18cm x 97cm. Boards are ~2cm thick.

Hi all -
When we moved from the States last August, we brought my husband's Boosted Stealth electric skateboard along.

When we moved from the States last August, we brought my husband's Boosted Stealth electric skateboard along.
Unfortunately, there was an issue with the battery after our move and not long after he sent the battery in for repairs, the company went under.
All of this is to say: we have a perfectly good longboard with a flexible composite deck that is no longer electric, and we'd like to give it to someone who can use it.
The dimensions are approximately 96 cm x 22 cm. We will include the extra parts that we have, as well.
Thanks!

These collars are helpful in making it harder for cats to catch birds.
The bright colours mean that the birds see the cat.
