Drivers or dunes
If you walk, horse ride, drive or fish the beaches north
of the city, you may wish to have a say on Environment
Canterbury’s Northern Pegasus Bay Coast draft vehicle
access strategy. It suggests controlling vehicle access to
beaches in Waimakariri and Hurunui to help protect
native plants and birds which reside in the sand dunes and
ease safety concerns created by people and vehicles using
these beaches. The strategy, submission forms and the Drivers or
Dunes? brochure are available at the City Council’s City
Libraries and Service Centres, or on the web at
www.ecan.govt.nz/Coast and clicking on Pegasus Bay.
Submissions, which can be made online, close on 30
August and a hearings panel will sit in September. For more information, contact Brian Milne at
Waimakariri District Council on (03) 313 6136 or Emma
Frazer at Hurunui District Council on (03) 314 8816. |
