Nice to hear about systems like the Te Kuru stormwater facility that do help counter flooding since we're experiencing more intense storms. Ōtautahi Christchurch had around 140 mm of flooding over 2.5 days with lots of flooding throughout the city.

Paper by Mitchell Anderson, which I contributed to, published about the concept "functional isolation", related to isolation (when you cannot access a facility) and cascading failures (when there are indirect loss of utilities).

Lovely day on New Regent Street. Even had a surprise food stall with delicious smelling food and wood fired grill. Such a great pedestrian zone in Christchurch!

Great improvement for #cycling in #Christchurch. At Armagh and Montreal heading to Hagley Park. It used to be an obstacle course to either weave between the two bollards or ride up the sloping kerb, but now it's a flat, smooth lane! #cyclechch
