Kaiapoi's regeneration efforts continue to transform the riverside town

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Kaiapoi's regeneration efforts continue to transform the North Canterbury riverside town, with softball pitches next on the to-do list.

Construction is expected to begin next month on the artificial turf diamonds, backstop fences and other features after the contract was awarded to Tiger Turf.

A feasibility study into a world-class aquasports facility for Kaiapoi is also under way, while a heritage and mahinga kai project has also been earmarked for funding.

Other projects will rely on population growth over the coming decades, particularly the proposed mixed-use business zone. Funding will come from the council and potential development partners.
