KiwiRail and Christchurch City Council at odds over delays to cycleway work
From reporter Tina Law:
KiwiRail is putting communities at risk by causing delays to work on cycleways across Christchurch, a city councillor warns.
The state-owned enterprise tasked with managing the country’s rail network is being blamed by the Christchurch City Council for delays on at least four cycleway projects – all of which were supposed to be fast-tracked thanks to Government shovel-ready funding.
The proposed cycleway routes either cross or run parallel to KiwiRail’s tracks, therefore design changes are needed to make it safer for cyclists.
However, the design work requires approval from KiwiRail, and in many cases these have not been forthcoming or KiwiRail and the council disagree about the level of work that is required. Read the full story here.
