MP questions why Canterbury mayors were 'disappointed' by draft transport plan
Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey says he is “devastated” residents’ safety continues to be ignored as plans for a Woodend bypass continue to stagnate.
Doocey has questioned the process behind Canterbury’s draft Regional Land Transport Plan, which listed the bypass as an ‘on the horizon’ project only.
Does Woodend need a bypass? Are there other big roading projects that are more urgent in Waimakariri? Read the full story here and tell us what you think in the comments below.
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.
