Ilam Gardens Tree Work

Facilities Management Grounds staff are currently undertaking general maintenance and tree trimming and crown work on trees in Ilam Gardens.

Work will be completed between 8am Monday 11 November and 4pm on Thursday 14 November and will include the removal of one dead tree.

Facilities Management have adopted a two for one replacement policy to compensate for the loss of a tree. Decisions on replacement planting will be part of the 2025 works planning.

What do you need to do?

  • Do not enter the fenced off area
  • Be aware of 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 safety works.

Roadway Painting ‘No Parking Zone’ – South Side Mechanical Engineering Wing 12 November.

Facilities Management Painters will be water blasting the roadway outside the five (5) exits on the Mechanical Engineering Wing, (south side) between 6am Tuesday 12 November and 4pm Wednesday 13 November.

This will be followed by painting of the cross-hatch no parking traffic symbols.  Cone barriers will be put in place Monday 11 November in preparation for the works which will be completed one entrance at a time. This means that not all entrances/exists will be closed at the same time.

While an entrance/exit outage is in place please follow signage to the nearest open entry or exit. Do not use the coned off entrance/exit.

This is a 24/7 no parking zone.

The road painting work is being undertaken in response to an identified health and safety issue. Vehicle users are parking in front of the doors, especially during the weekend, blocking access and exit to the building.

These are fire egress doors and must be kept clear at all times for use in any emergency situation, to allow people to quickly exit the building, and to allow emergency services access into the building.

This project is weather dependant and could be postponed.

Thank you for your consideration of FM works in progress and no parking zones in this area. Please direct all enquiries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz
