Burwood Landfi ll Resource Recovery Park RedevelopmentReintegration with Bottle Lake Forest Park
have your say June 2014
Christchurch City Council recognises that Bottle Lake Forest Park (BLFP) is a unique and very popular site with recreationists. We would therefore like to seek your thoughts on how the landfi ll area is best integrated back into BLFP. Burwood Landfi ll within BLFP has been used for disposal of Christchurch’s refuse since 1984. Following the Canterbury earthquakes the landfi ll was reopened as the Burwood Resource Recovery Park for the sorting and disposal of demolition material. It is due to be closed at the end of 2017 and rehabilitated for integration back into BLFP. The Landfi ll area to be rehabilitated is approximately 69 ha and 25m high.
An informal drop in session was held on Saturday 3rd May 2014 for stakeholders and BLFP users to provide feedback on possible recreation developments for the landfi ll area. Feedback from that session has assisted us in developing this draft landscape plan.
Please ensure that your comments reach us by 5pm on Wednesday 25 June 2014.

The key issues regarding this project are:
• A closure plan is required for this site by September 2014.
• Physical closure will not take place until 2017.
• The redevelopment work will be programmed as a staged approach over several years 2018-2021.
• The objective is to integrate the area into the surrounding BLFP landscape and with other park activities.
• The landfi ll cap is only 1.5m deep which limits tree planting and structures.
• The gas plant and infrastructure will remain in place.
• If any future signifi cant earthquake events were to occur it is possible the landfi ll could be re-opened.
The key features of this proposed concept plan are:
• Improved links to beach access.
• It will incorporate viewing areas and picnic tables.
• Installation of interpretation panels.
• A nature trail to view ponds and wildlife.
• Extensions of the existing walk, run, cycle and horse trails.
• Implementation of a mountain bike dual slalom and trail area.
