Enterprise North Canterbury (ENC) is applying to the Lottery Significant Projects Fund in a bid to secure the $3m needed to complete the multiday cycle trail ‘Wheels to Waipara'. The scenic trail would take cyclists on a series of off-road routes from central Christchurch via New Brighton and Bottle Lake Forest, across the Waimakariri Bridge and through North Canterbury to the Waipara wine region.

Enterprise North Canterbury (ENC) has secured $200,000 from the Government’s Provincial Growth Capacity Building Fund with which to progress the North Canterbury food and beverage sector.
