Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger has accused council staff of 'running amok' after a new cycleway was built on Park Tce.
Phil Mauger and several Christchurch City Councillors are up in arms after council transport staff approved this cycleway under the guise of temporary traffic management.
Fendalton Ward Councillor James Gough says council staff had submitted new safety enhancements on Rolleston Ave and claimed further developments would return to council for a 'full decision'.
"The council staff essentially said to that- yep, we're including it in here just for your information, it's an FYI. These are going to come back to you to make a decision on. And I said- well, it's quite controversial, I think it would be worthwhile to have a workshop around that."
