The intersection of Tuam and High streets currently has 20 traffic light poles, which were installed by the Christchurch City Council in October 2016.

The council is set to reduce the number of signal poles to six as part of its long-term plan for revitalising High St between Cashel, St Asaph and Manchester streets, and extending the street's tram route.

About $6.7m has been set aside for the High St revamp and about $2.9m for the proposed tram extensions. Read the full story here.

Greater Christchurch has overwhelmingly voted red – giving Labour all but two of its electorate seats and the majority of the party vote.

Labour supporters at the party's election event in Christchurch on Saturday night were barely able to keep a lid on their excitement and glee at National’s astonishingly poor performance in the city – and their knives came out for their parliamentary colleagues in Blue.

“At last, Christchurch has woken up,” said Duncan Webb, Christchurch Central’s incumbent.

“It’s been a long campaign, exhausting, but the reward you get for that, it’s amazing.

We purchased Jumpflex because of its superior quality and long guarantees.

Because the tramp is quite new, Jumplflex have agreed to honour the guarantees for the new owner. I can provide this in writing from Jumpflex.

This tramp also has a 250 kilo jump load, which is significantly more than other brands.

Paid $938.00 for tramp, net and Aquajet (accessory that is attached to tramp, you connect your hose and it showers water onto the tramp.

You will need to dismantle and remove from Redcliffs by Monday 26th Labour day please as we're moving house.

Great Christmas pressy.
