Christchurch, New Zealand's second largest city Went overnight from this

To this A new reality And a unique environment

How do we create opportunities in this dynamic environment ?

a gift to the city a legacy for our children a sanctuary for nature

To establish an sanctuary encompassing Travis Wetland and an area south of Travis Road with a perimeter pest-exclusion fence. Includes residential red zone land to provide drier land so wildlife can retreat during flood events. Excludes residential property that is not zoned as residential red zone Wildlife and pedestrian bridge over Travis Road. An 8 kilometer long predator proof fence 1.9m high will exclude animal pests and allow venerable wildlife to thrive. The project will extend the number of native species that can live within the city limits. Education centre; information centre; on-site interpretation Tracks and paths; seats; car parks; signage

Waitākiri Sanctuary Toitū te marae o Tāne… Toitū te marae o Tangaroa.. Toitū te iwi Healthy lands, healthy waters and healthy people.

Travis wetland

This project is more than just me

Its about us and much more

Provides an opportunity for Christchurch people to reconnect with their natural and cultural heritage. On going free access is a key goal. This project builds on 21 years of ecological restoration work at Travis wetland through community participation. Is one of a number of projects submitted to assist the red- zoned land and local business. It will be an anchor project for the proposed Avon River/Ōtākaro Park, and will be a key feature along the city-to-sea pathway, the Ōtākaro River route cycleway, the proposed Christchurch perimeter walkway and the Mahinga Kai project.

Waitākiri Sanctuary 180 hectares of land will be protected for; education, conservation, recreation, tourism and research within New Zealand's second largest city

Project benefits An excellent resource for local schools, education, research and science. Contributes to earthquake recovery. Showcase for Christchurch’s natural and cultural heritage. Increased recreation capacity. Protects and enhances habitat for iconic native flora and fauna. Improved physical, spiritual and mental health. Increased community participation on conservation. Potential for business and tourism opportunities.

An innovative wildlife and pedestrian bridge will connect the existing Travis wetland with nearby red- zoned land. Will be a New Zealand first.

Why a fence? Provides fewer and controlled entry points, contributing to a better educational and recreational experience for people using the area. Is one of the few options we have to exclude pests without risks to pets and children. Provides safe breeding conditions for rare species, some of which may then forage out into the city. Many iconic wildlife have zero- tolerance of predation.
