Christchurch Northern Corridor
BEEP BEEP, the cars are piling up on Cranford Street. Cranford Street used to be more controlled but these days cars zoom and block up the road. Now that the new motorway is open, do people find it hard to get to places or do they find it easier?

Are people even happy with the new changes? There are pros and cons to the new layout for these roads.Some think it's better because there is less traffic on their street, but it is directing the other
from that street to the other streets. For some people it is easier to get to places but for others
it's harder. It is hard to cross Cranford street now even if there are traffic lights. Cars pile up and block
the crossing. There are also more buses now. The road works have also affected the people around Cranford
Street. During the roadworks there were lots of sleepless nights and loud noises during the day. They have finally
stopped making loud noises but are they really finished?!
They are making some side streets skinnier. They made some of the side streets one way, but some
people just ignore the signs. One day there's going to be an accident!
The council says they want to boost the economy but there is no parking by the small
businesses on Cranford Street. People can’t go to the coffee shops or the dairy. How is this boosting
the economy?
Some people are happy with the new motorway, some think it made the streets around
Cranford more dangerous and noisy. So, is the motorway a good idea or was it just a waste of money?
