If you haven’t been on a bike for a while, or want to take your confidence riding a bike in Christchurch to a new level, then these Cycle Skills workshops are for you.

Across three sessions, you’ll be taught skills from the foundational basics to urban riding and riding in traffic with confidence.

Term 2 sessions will run on the following days:

• Tuesday 6th May: 12 – 12:50pm
• Tuesday 20th May: 12 – 12:50pm
• Tuesday 27th May: 12 – 12:50pm

All you need to bring is your bike and a helmet, along with a ready-to-learn attitude.

Spaces are limited, so if you would like to attend, please contact Campbell Madsen (campbell.madsen@canterbury.ac.nz) to secure a spot.

Facilities Management Contractors will be working in the corridors on level 1 of the Ernest Rutherford building between 7am Monday 7 April until 4.30pm Friday 11 April to run cabling for the installation of swipe card access to room 122.

We are not expecting this work to cause any undue or prolonged disruption; however, the contractors will be working from ladders in the doorways. This should not block off access, but it may narrow the access down slightly while work is in progress.

We ask you to take care when you are passing through the area where the contractors are working and follow any contractor signage.

Please direct any queries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz.

Thank you for your patience as we complete these compliance works.

*Change of Date

Facilities Management Contractors will be undertaking Tree removal works on the Dovedale Campus adjacent to the Ring Road (currently closed due to construction work) between 7am and 5pm on * Wednesday 16 April.

These removal works are required to provide for a new power transformer for the new production building, and to futureproof power supply for the Dovedale Campus.

Facilities Management have adopted a two for one replacement policy to compensate for the loss of a tree. Four trees will be planted in the surrounding area in accordance with this 2:1 replacement policy.

While works are in progress, please ensure that you follow all signage on site, do not enter any fenced off areas, and remain aware of additional truck and machinery movement on site. There will be machinery noise from use of the chainsaw and chipper.

Please direct any enquiries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz

 Thank you for your consideration as we undertake these required works.
