A stronger visual link between the new build and the viaduct is possible, but overall it is a great scheme and the restoration of the mill should be viewed in the context of the viability constraints.

What’s wrong with it? There are already large buildings built adjacent too the viaduct. At least this one’s attractive and in keeping with the industrial aesthetic. There are zero grounds for refusal on that basis as far as I can see.

When considering `important views of the viaduct’, we should surely consider the shocking state of repair of the viaduct itself first.
The derby, which returned to Timaru’s streets in 2017 after a 40-year hiatus, typically raised about $5000 for charity each year. Hardache said an influx of junior racers, introducing a class pairing schools with businesses, and generosity from spectators helped propel the amount raised to $9300. “Entries were down a bit, but the number was pretty similar. The juniors and the new class made up for the drop in the open section.” There were 18 racers in the junior class, 10 in the Todd Mudie (schools with businesses), 13 in the corporate, and four in the open. “We had six new entries on the day of the event,” Hardache said.
