  • Dunedin Town Belt
    Dunedin Town Belt The Town Belt is a green belt which surrounds the centre of the New Zealand city of Dunedin. Covering a total of over 200 hectares (490 acres), it extends around three sides of the city's centre at a distance from it of some 1-3 km (1-2 mi) in a broad 7 km (4 mi) crescent from the Oval at Kensington in the south through the suburbs of Mornington, City Rise, Belleknowes, Roslyn, Maori Hill, Prospect Park, Glenleith, Woodhaugh, The Gardens and Dunedin North and the slopes of Signal Hill. The fourth side of the central city is bounded by the Otago Harbour. One of the world's oldest green belts, the Town Belt was planned in Scotland at the time of the advent of the Otago settlement in 1848.[1] Residential areas outside the belt became separate boroughs, and were not amalgamated with Dunedin until much later. The town belt now forms a break between the city's inner and Approximate extent of Dunedin's Town outer suburbs. The belt was originally a combination of native bush Belt, shown in green. and scrubland, but is now largely replanted forest and open parkland. Many species of plant can be found in the belt, including tree fuchsia, lemonwood, lancewood, manuka, and broadleaf, and the forested area is home to many species of birds, including some uncommon and endangered species such as the kereru, eastern rosella, bellbird, tomtit, tui, rifleman, morepork, and shining cuckoo, and kotare. A long, narrow road, Queens Drive, winds along much of the length of the belt and provides easy access to it for Dunedinites.

  • 1/6/15 Otago Southland Regional Land Tranport Plans
    Otago Southland Regional Land Transport Plans 2015-2021 Chairmen’s Foreword The Otago and Southland Regional Transport Committees are pleased to present these 2015–2021 Otago Southland Regional Land Transport Plans. These plans set our vision of transport in the future, and how we - the 10 local authorities in our two regions and the NZ Transport Agency - intend to achieve this by funding and providing transport services and infrastructure. The prosperity of both Otago and Southland - our quality of life - depends heavily on good land transport infrastructure and services. Our primary industries drive much of the area’s economic growth, so good access and freight services linking farms and forests, suppliers, processors and export gateways are critical. Tourism, another major economic driver in Otago and Southland, also depends on quality road links. Covering almost half of the South Island, the Otago and Southland regions face common transport challenges. These include a very large land area and road network but comparatively low rating population in many areas, natural hazards impacting on the roads, and infrastructure upgrades needed to give longer, heavier freight trucks access to key parts of the transport network. Our two regions also have many common road safety issues. It is these shared issues and opportunities that have led us to jointly develop our Regional Land Transport Plans. Our Regional Transport Committees have developed a common transport strategy for the two regions. This strategy focuses on maintaining our established transport networks, while making key improvements to transport services and infrastructure, focusing on: reducing the social cost of crashes; supporting economic productivity and growth by enabling freight journeys and visitor journeys; increasing network resilience; enabling all modes of transport appropriate access to the network; and ensuring value for money investments.

  • Spind Directory Service Providers in Dunedin
    SPinD directory Service Providers in Dunedin A survival guide to Dunedin 1 The Survival Guide to Dunedin is compiled for people on a low income, particularly those without a safe secure home. There is a long continuum of those who fit into this broad definition, including those who live on the streets, in cars or empty buildings; those who move frequently from one temporary shelter to another (including emergency accommodation, the women‘s refuge and those staying with family or friends); those living in boarding houses on a medium to long-term basis; and those who live in substandard housing. A lack of adequate affordable housing is known to damage health and cause complications in many areas of life for individuals and families and can have negative effects on the growth and development of children. Unstable housing has significant implications for the broader community service sector. This guide is intended as a directory of relevant services, agencies, outlets and information for those with limited means. The Survival Guide aims to help people access essential services and information geared specifically to their needs; needs related to the complex causes of homelessness, in particular poverty, mental health issues, drug, alcohol and gambling issues, and leaving prison or institutional care. Most of the services contained within the Survival Guide are provided by small non-profit organisations, no agency paid for their inclusion but all offer important services. As well as being a resource for those in need this is a valuable source of information for those working in these areas so as to liaise and network with other agencies doing similar work.

Having a café on the factory site – that’s what! Bay Road Peanut Butter has infused the food and beverages menu with seriously local flavour, with Common Ground Espresso, Windy Ridge Milk, toast from Spelt Bakery and jams from Eat with Kate all close at hand. https://www.facebook.com/bayroadnz/ New Ocho Chocolate Factory & Café Opening Soon Already renowned for its range of single-origin craft bean-to-bar chocolate and for running a stylish compact café, Ocho Chocolate moved to a bigger factory space early in 2018. It’s due to open a new shop and café on the site before Christmas, still showcasing the varied flavours of Pacific-grown beans.
