Northern Star and 480 Kainga proposed changes
Over the past few months we've been asking people to tell us what they think about these existing services:
- 90 Rangiora (direct)
- 92 Rangiora (via Woodend and Waikuku)
- 912 Woodend Shuttle
- 913 Woodend Shuttle (via Waikuku)
- 480 Kainga
From this feedback, we have proposed some changes to the existing services. These changes have not been finalised - we need your feedback before any final decisions are made. All responses received by Friday 01 October 2010 will go into the draw to win one of ten $30 Metrocard Top-Up Vouchers.
You can find more information and respond to the proposed changes on the Metroinfo website.

Publicly Notified Consents
Notification of applications for Resource Consent under Section 93(2) or 94C of the Resource Management Act 1991.
When a resource consent is received by Environment Canterbury, the Council conducts an assessment of its environmental effects. If the environmental effects are more than minor, the resource consent requires a public notification under Section 93(1) of the Resource Management Act 1991.
All publicly notified resource consents are listed under the News and Notices section and homepage of this website. On the Public Notices page, there is a page for each public notice and at the base of each public notice page is a link to a submission form for public use.
