Victoria Henstock

The first-term independent councillor representing Papanui was voted in on a promise to revisit the Wheels to Wings cycleway on Harewood Rd. She succeeded.

The council will instead go ahead with a scaled down, staged approach, and will install traffic lights at the Harewood/Gardiners/Breens Rd intersection, and will link up two other cycleways, the Nor’West Arc and Northern Line.

Henstock is blunt in her debates and questioning of staff, and does not shy away from saying what she thinks. She is seeking re-election.
