Report of / Te Pou Matua:

Mansour Johari, Passenger Transport Engineer (Mansour.johari@ccc.govt.nz)

Senior Manager / Pouwhakarae:

Mary Richardson, General Manager Citizens & Community (Mary.Richardson@ccc.govt.nz)

 

 

1.   Nature of Issue and Report Origin

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board to approve the proposed bus stop upgrades on Hansons Lane near Blenheim Road, outside 106 and 111 Hansons Lane.

1.2       This report is staff generated in response to a complaint from the owner of 106 and 108 Hansons Lane (Chinese general consulate) that bus passengers use the recessed entrance of its property as weather protection.

1.3       In addition, staff investigations showed the bus's rear door opens over a vehicle crossing posing challenges on accessibility from bus to kerb particularly for the elderly, children, and disabled bus users.

1.4       The decision in this report is of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.  The level of significance was determined by considering the criteria set out in the Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board approves:

Bus stop 50662 – 106 Hansons Lane (Attachment A to the report on the meeting agenda)

1.         Pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017:

a.    That a bus stop be installed on west side of Hansons Lane commencing at a point 57.5 metres north of its intersection with Blenheim Road and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 16 metres.  

b.    That the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at all times on the west side of Hansons Lane, commencing at a point 73.5 metres north of its intersection with Blenheim Road and extending in a northerly direction of a distance of 229.5 metres.

2.         Pursuant to Section 339(1) of the Local Government Act 1974:

a.         That a passenger shelter be installed on the west side of Hansons Lane commencing at a point 67 metres North of its intersection with Blenheim Road and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of approximately 3.6 metres.

3.         That road surface treatment, two sets of directional and a set of warning tactile pavers, a bus stop sign, bus seat (Bus Stop 50670 – 111 Hansons Lane) and a rubbish bin be installed as shown on Attachment A to the report on the meeting agenda.

4.         That any previous resolutions pertaining to parking and stopping restrictions made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they conflict with the parking and stopping restrictions described in clauses 1 – 3 above are revoked.

5.         That these resolutions take effect when the parking and stopping restrictions that evidence the restrictions described in clauses 1 – 4 above are in place.

 

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       The advantages of this option include:

·     The provision of a bus shelter and a seat enhance the waiting area for bus passengers. In particular, the proposed shelter will enhance the weather protection for waiting bus passengers at the bus stop and remove the current conflicts between bus users and people queueing at 106 Hansons Lane entrance door to enter the general consulate.

·     The extension of bus box improves the access from bus to kerb specifically for elderly, children, and disabled people by removing the conflict between bus rear door and vehicle crossing.

3.2       The disadvantages of this option include:

·     The installation of a new shelter will result in additional maintenance and cleaning costs for the Council.

 

4.   Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Option 2 - Do nothing and the existing street conditions will remain as is.

·     The advantages of this option include:

a.    Council will not incur any costs.

·     The disadvantages of this option include:

a.    The passengers will continue to use 106 Hansons Lane entrance as weather protection leading to conflicts with people queueing there.

b.    No improvement occurs in accessibility from bus to kerb and passengers who use bus rear door to alight have to step out onto a vehicle crossing.

5.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

5.1       All bus stops are planned and implemented in accordance with the Christchurch Bus Stop Guidelines (2009) and the Christchurch City Council’s Construction Standard Specifications (2018).

Public Consultation Te Tukanga Kōrerorero

5.2       Consultation has been carried out with the following organizations/groups:

·    Affected property owners and occupiers (owner/occupier of 106-108 Hansons Lane and owner/occupier of 111 Hansons Lane).  The consultation area is shown in Figure 1.

·    Members of accessibility reference group (ARG) and public transport stakeholders reference group (PTSRG)

·    Bus operator (GoBus and Ritchies Transport)

5.3       The consultation period for the proposed upgrades occurred between 17 July - 02 Aug 2023. 

Summary of Submissions Ngā Tāpaetanga

5.4       7 submissions were received including 2 submissions from the owners and occupiers and 5 submissions from Environment Canterbury, bus operators, and members of PTSRG and ARG. 6 submissions in support of the proposed upgrades, one neutral submission, and no objection was received.

5.5       In the following, the submissions and the responses from staff are provided.

5.6       The following stakeholders have supported the proposed bus stop upgrades:

Environment Canterbury

GoBus

Ritchies Transport

Blind and Low Vision NZ

New Zealand Automobile Association (NZAA)

5.7       Blind and Low Vision NZ raised a concern regarding the separation of shared path and dedicated cycle lane. A set of directional tactile pavers, which separate the shared path and the dedicated cycle lane, was introduced in the plan to cover this concern.

5.8       The following owners/occupiers have supported the proposed bus stop upgrades:

·    Owner/occupier 106 Hansons Lane – Upgrade of Bus Stop 50662 is a great news for bus passengers and badly needed.

5.9       The following owners/occupiers have proposed the following suggestions:

·    Owner/occupier 111 Hansons Lane – As owners of 111 Hansons Lane we'd like to suggest that the grass verge at the front of our property be tiled, concreted or asphalted. The reason for this is the area is currently grassed and gets very muddy during winter. The area is often prone to weeds to which I am constantly spraying strong chemicals so I sometimes worry about children catching the bus not knowing when/where we've sprayed. Tiling, concreting or asphalting the area I believe would make a significant difference to the well-being of the community, us as property owners and those who use the bus stop.

Staff response: A letter was sent to owner/occupier of 111 Hansons Lane explaining that this request falls beyond the scope of our bus upgrade project and our obligations.

5.10    The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

5.10.1 Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board.

6.   Policy Framework Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here

Strategic AlignmentTe Rautaki Tīaroaro

6.1       Council’s Strategic Framework is a key consideration in guiding the recommendations in this report. The recommendations in this report help achieve the:

·    community outcome of a well-connected and accessible city promoting active and public transport, and

·    strategic priorities of meeting the challenge of climate change through every means available.

6.2       This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2021 - 2031):

6.3       Transport

6.3.1   Activity: Transport

·     Level of Service: 10.4.1 More people are choosing to travel by bus - >=13.1 million people

·     Level of Service: 10.4.4 Improve user satisfaction of public transport facilities (number and quality of shelters and quality of bus stop) - >=72% resident satisfaction

·     Level of Service: 10.5.42 Increase the infrastructure provision for active and public modes - >= 585 kilometres (total combined length)  

Policy Consistency Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.4       The decision is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.5       The decision does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture and traditions.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.6       Public transport is a key provision to support mode shift, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, traffic congestion and traffic crashes. Measures that promote the use of public transport make it a more attractive travel option, thereby supporting mode shift and associated benefits to the environment.

Accessibility Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā

6.7       Accessibility by access to opportunities: The proposed relocated bus stop will have a positive impact to the well-being and accessibility of our community through freedom to access opportunities by means other than private vehicles.

6.8       Accessibility by inclusive design:

·    The proposed bus box extension enhances the access from bus to kerb for passengers who use bus rear door. This is in particular important for safe access of old, children and disabled people.

·    The standard and consistent design approach considered in the proposed upgrades improves the accessibility to public transport for blind and low vision people.

7.   Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

7.1       Cost to Implement - $38,500 for the bus stop improvements and parking restrictions, plus $2,000 for the planning, consultation, and preparation of this report.

7.2       Maintenance/Ongoing costs - Transport Unit Operational Expenditure budgets, includes maintenance of bus stop infrastructure, which adds up to approximately $230 annually.

7.3       Funding Source - Traffic Operations, Capital Expenditure budget for bus stop, seating, and shelter installations.

7.4       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented during this financial year.

8.   Legal Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa

8.1       The relevant Community Board or Committee have delegated authority from the Council to exercise the delegations as set out in the Register of Delegations. The list of delegations for the Community Boards includes the resolutions of:

·    Stopping, standing, and parking restrictions (including bus stops) under Clause 7 of the Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017.

·    Bus passenger shelters under Section 339 (1) of the Local Government Act 1974.

Other Legal Implications Ētahi atu Hīraunga-ā-Ture

8.2       The legal consideration is that the installation of any signs and/or markings associated with traffic control devices must comply with the Land Transport Rule: Traffic Control Devices 2004.

8.3       Under Section 339 of the Local Government Act 1974, the Council may erect on the footpath of any road, a shelter for use by intending public transport passengers or small passenger service vehicle passengers provided that no such shelter may be erected so as to unreasonably prevent access to any land having a frontage to the road. The Council is required to give notice in writing to the occupier and owner of property likely to be injuriously affected by the erection of the shelter, and shall not proceed with the erection of the shelter until after the expiration of the time for objecting against the proposal or, in the event of an objection, until after the objection has been determined.

8.4       Staff confirm the shelters will not prevent vehicular or pedestrian access to any land having a frontage to the road.

8.5       Where no objection to the shelter has been presented by the owner or occupier of an affected property, staff present a decision making report directly to the relevant Community Board.

8.6        Where an objection has been presented by the owner or occupier of an affected property, staff present a decision making report to a Hearings Panel. The Hearings Panel then assess the objection against the criterion as outlined in Section 339 of the Act and make recommendations to the relevant Community Board. The Community Board will then determine the outcome of the objections in accordance with criterion outlined in Section 339 of the Local Government Act 1974.

8.7       Section 339 of the Local Government Act requires that resolution of the proposed shelter will require a separate decision of a Council Hearings Panel that will hear the objections of the immediate owner (s) and occupier (s) of bordering properties.

8.8       This report has not been reviewed and approved by the Legal Services Unit.

9.   Risk Management Implications Ngā Hīraunga Tūraru

9.1       Should the Community Board proceed with Option 2, the do-nothing option:

·    Passengers will continue to use 106 Hansons Lane entrance as weather protection leading to conflicts with people queueing there.

·    Passengers who use bus rear door to alight have to step out onto a vehicle crossing.

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations / Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       The recommended option is to:

·   carry out kerb upgrades in accordance with Attachment A. This includes;

·     replacing the existing dish channel with new standard kerb and channel to reduce future maintenance costs.

·     Installing a kerb buildout on Banks St to improve pedestrian access to/from Templeton School.

·   make changes to line markings in accordance with Attachment A. These changes include;

·     installing no stopping lines on Banks St to increase sight distance for users of the proposed kerb build out on Banks St, (increasing a driver’s visibility to pedestrians and a pedestrian’s visibility of approaching traffic).

·     Installing no stopping lines, opposite the Kissel St intersection, to improve safety.

·     Installing no stopping lines on the corners of Banks Ave/Kirk Rd, Kirk Rd/Riwai St, Kirk Rd/Kopara St to improve sight distance and manoeuvrability at these intersections.

3.2       The existing dish channel in Banks St and Kissel St is failing, and it does not meet current design standards. The dish channel will continue to deteriorate over time, which will generate increased maintenance costs, therefore providing new kerb and channel to current design standards will keep maintenance costs at current levels.

3.3       The kerb renewal project also provides an opportunity to make minor changes to the layout to improve safety and accessibility for pedestrians, by improving the condition of the roadway. 

 

4.   Alternative Options Considered / Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Do nothing

4.1.1   Option advantages:

·     Reduced CAPEX spend

4.1.2   Option disadvantages

·     Does not address poor road asset condition

·     Accessibility for bus users and pedestrians accessing Templeton School will not be achieved

·     Safety for pedestrians will not be achieved

·     There has already been significant work completed with the community to get this project to this stage, not proceeding without good justification could result in negative feedback

5.   Detail / Te Whakamahuki

5.1       The Banks and Kissel St kerb renewals has been initiated through the maintenance programme, as the existing dish channel is in poor condition and its progressive deterioration is expected to generate increasing annual maintenance costs. The dish channel will be replaced with kerb and channel to meet current design standards.

5.2       There are a high portion of pedestrians in the area, with many being school-aged children, due to the presence of Templeton Primary School and two preschools, which are the Kidsfirst Kindergarten on Banks St and Templeton Nursey and Preschool on Kirk Rd.  Pedestrian activity is also expected due to several local amenities in the local area, such as the dairy on the Kirk Rd/Kopara St corner, Templeton RSA, Templeton Community Centre, St Saviors Church and Templeton’s Summer swimming pool. The remaining surrounding area is largely residential.

5.3       The Number 5 (Rolleston/New Brighton) bus route services the immediate project area, travelling along Kissel St, Banks St and Kirk Rd.

5.4       The expected pedestrian activity and presence of the bus service meant that additional upgrades to improve overall accessibility and safety in the project area were investigated as part of the scheme design. This led to the proposal including kerb buildouts, dropped kerb for pedestrian crossings and new line marking. 

5.5       The Banks St and Kissel St kerb upgrade and safety improvements were originally consulted on in August 2022. Comments were invited from residents and key stakeholders from 21 August to 4 October 2022.

5.6       Feedback received from Templeton Primary School and Te Whatu Ora Health New Zealand expressed they were pleased with the proposal.

5.7       Feedback from residents and other key stakeholders was generally supportive, however their comments resulted in some changes to the original proposal, which included: retaining the existing P5 parking outside the RSA, reducing the length of yellow dashed “no parking” lines to retain space for parking outside the kindergarten, removing yellow dashed lines on Kissel St outside 29 Banks St and installing bus cage markings to the existing bus stop on Kirk Rd (outside 2 Banks St).

5.8       The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

5.8.1   Waipuna – Halswell / Hornby / Riccarton Community Board

6.   Community Views and Preferences Ngā mariu ā-Hāpori

Public Consultation Te Tukanga Kōrerorero

6.1       Consultation opened for feedback from 13 September and ran until 4 October 2022. An email was sent to 18 key stakeholders, including Templeton School, Red Bus, Environment Canterbury, and emergency services.

6.2       Consultation documents were delivered to 36 properties on 13 September 2022 to Banks Street, properties around the intersections of Banks and Kissel and Banks and Kirk. This document invited submissions on the Have Your Say webpage.

6.3       Staff met with the head teacher at Kidsfirst Kindergarten during this period to discuss the proposed changes.

Summary of Submissions Ngā Tāpaetanga

6.4       Submissions were made by four recognised organisations, (Disability Persons Assembly, Te Whatu Ora Health NZ, Templeton Residents Association and Templeton RSA) and 13 individuals.  All submissions are available in Attachment B.

6.5       Seven submitters supported the new kea crossing on Banks Street.

6.6       Six submitters did not support the yellow no parking lines, expressing that the proposal was excessive and unfair to residents by taking away the ability to park outside their property. A response was sent to these submitters explaining that the provision of “no parking” lines will improve sightlines for pedestrians crossing the road. The “no stopping” lines outside 23 Kirk Rd will also prevent vehicles parking over an existing fire hydrant. No changes were made to the plans because of these submissions as it was decided that the removal of “no parking” lines would compromise the safety of pedestrians.

6.7       Three submitters raised concerns about yellow no parking lines outside the kindergarten, requesting for them to be removed. This feedback led to the design being altered by reducing the length of “no parking” lines to increase the number of parking spaces outside the kindergarten.

Six submitters asked for time restricted parking outside the Templeton School at drop-off and pick-up times as they felt the restrictions should not be in force outside of school hours.

7.   Policy Framework Implications / Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here

Strategic Alignment / Te Rautaki Tīaroaro

7.1       This project is in alignment with the Christchurch Transport Strategic Plan 2012, the Draft Christchurch Transport Plan 2022 and the Christchurch District Plan.

7.2       This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2021 - 2031):

7.3       Transport

7.3.1   Activity: Transport

·     Level of Service: 16.0.1 Maintain roadway condition to an appropriate national standard, - >=5% of the sealed local road network is resurfaced per year  

Policy Consistency / Te Whai Kaupapa here

7.4       The decision is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies named in 6.1 above. This project improves accessibility to public transport infrastructure through providing accessible kerb heights at bus stops. It also improves safety for pedestrians by including sight lines (through parking restrictions) and providing a kerb buildout on Banks St outside Templeton School. 

Impact on Mana Whenua / Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

7.5       The decision does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture and traditions.

7.6       The decision does not involve a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga

Climate Change Impact Considerations / Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

7.7       This scheme provides an improvement in pedestrian and public transport infrastructure which will help promote a mode shift away from private use vehicles with a resulting reduction in emissions.

Accessibility Considerations / Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā

7.8       This project improves accessibility and connectivity for pedestrians, including those accessing Templeton Primary School and the Kindergarten, and to the public transport facilities. Residents on Kirk Road, Banks St and Kissel St will have better facilities to walk to and from the new bus services and to cross Banks St near Templeton School.

7.9       The removal of deep-dish channel will also improve accessibility for users of buses services, as buses can pull up close to the kerb which will minimise the gap between the bus and footpath.

8.   Resource Implications / Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

8.1       Cost to implement – The current costs estimate for the delivery of these projects is:

·   62899 Kerb Renewal - Package 1 - Banks St (Templeton)  $759,815

·   62900 Kerb Renewal - Package 1 - Kissel St (Templeton)  $163,197

·   Total cost estimate $923,012

8.2       The design currently proposed exceeds the available budget. We have undertaken a peer review of the project and are unable to find savings without compromising the purpose and objectives of the project. Should additional funding still be required following detailed design and/or tender, this would be sought from the renewals programme, works will not commence until sufficient funding is in place.

8.3       Maintenance/Ongoing costs – no additional maintenance/ongoing costs. The project is expected to be ‘cost neutral’ in terms of maintenance, as Council already sweep the dish channel, so the project will just change the operation to be flat channel.

8.4       Funding Source – This project has been funded as part of the renewals programme in the Council’s Long Term Plan 2021 – 2031 as follows:

·   62899 Kerb Renewal - Package 1 - Banks St (Templeton)  $529,000

·   62900 Kerb Renewal - Package 1 - Kissel St (Templeton)  $337,088

·   Total funding $866,088

9.   Legal Implications / Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report / Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa

9.1       The Community Boards have delegated authority from the Council to exercise the delegations as set out in the Register of Delegations. The list of delegations for the Community Boards includes the resolution of parking and stopping restrictions and traffic control devices.

9.2       The installation of any signs and/or markings associated with traffic control devices must comply with the Land Transport Rule: Traffic Control Devices 2004.

Other Legal Implications / Ētahi atu Hīraunga-ā-Ture

9.3       There is no legal context, issue or implication relevant to this decision.

9.4       This specific report has not been reviewed and approved by the Legal Services Unit, however the report has been written using a general approach previously approved by the Legal Services Unit, and the recommendations are consistent with the policy and legislative framework outlined above.

Reference Te Tohutoro:

23/445670

Report of Te Pou Matua:

Andrew Hensley, Traffic Engineer andrew.hensley@ccc.govt.nz

General Manager  Pouwhakarae:

Mary Richardson, General Manager Citizens & Community (Mary.Richardson@ccc.govt.nz)

 

1.   Purpose of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is to seek the approval of the Board to install no stopping restrictions in Noodlum Way outside the Longhurst Health complex.

1.2       The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by the low level of impact and low number of people affected by the recommended decision.

1.3       The community engagement and consultation outlined in this report reflect the assessment.

1.4       The recommended option is to Install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A.

2.   Staff Recommendations / Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board:

1.         Approves, pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, and as shown on Attachment A to the report on the meeting agenda (Plan TG144377, Issue 1, dated 11/8/2023 that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the south eastern side of Noodlum Way commencing at a point 16 metres north east of its intersection with Packard Crescent and extending in a north easterly direction for a distance of 25 metres.

2.         Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the traffic controls described in1.

3.         Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road marking that evidence the restrictions described in 1. and 2. are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       A report was approved by the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board on 29 June 2021, to install no stopping restrictions around the Caulfield Avenue / Noodlum Way, and Ishwar Ganda Boulevard / Noodlum Way / Packard Crescent intersections. This was to improve safety and access. The report retained a section of parking on the south eastern side of Noodlum Way.

3.2       Safety and access concerns have been raised again about Noodlum Way outside the Longhurst Health complex. Vehicles parked on the south-eastern side of Noodlum Way can restrict inter-visibility for road users, and results in some vehicles tracking over the centreline on the approach to the Ishwar Gandar Boulevard / Packard Crescent intersection. To improve the situation, it is proposed to remove approximately 5 on street parking spaces.

3.3       Implementing the noted recommendations will ease access and lead to a reduction in the risk of a crash for all road users, by improving sightlines and vehicle positioning on the curve, and on the approach to the intersection.

3.4       The recommendations in this report will help to achieve the desired community outcome of a well-connected and accessible city through improved road safety.

3.5       The recommended option is to install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A.

3.6       Options within this report have been assessed against relevant industry-standard design guidance.

4.   Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Maintain the status quo – Do Nothing.

4.2       The advantages of this option include:

4.2.1   Retain approximately 5 on-street parking spaces.

4.2.2   No cost.

4.3       The disadvantages of the option include:

4.3.1   Does not improve safety or access on Noodlum Way for road users.

5.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

5.1       Noodlum Way is a local road within the Longhurst subdivision. The section of Noodlum Way referenced in this report provides a link between the Caulfield Avenue intersection and Ishwar Ganda Boulevard / Packard Crescent intersection. It has commercial development on the south eastern side, and reserve land and resident development on the north eastern side.

5.2       There are high parking demands at times on the south eastern side of Noodlum Way where the extension to the no stopping restrictions are proposed. However, there is a surplus of parking opportunities in the immediate surrounding area.

5.3       There have been no crashes in this section of Noodlum Way the last five years. 

5.4       Approval is required by the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board.

5.5       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year.

Community Views and Preferences

5.6       The facilities manager of the Longhurst Health complex, which the proposed no stopping restrictions would be outside of, supports the preferred option. No further consultation has been undertaken due to the low likelihood of parking displacement directly affecting other properties.

5.7       The Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.

5.8       The do nothing option is inconsistent with community requests to improve safety and accessibility on Noodlum Way.

6.   Policy Framework Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here

2.         Notes that the granted funds are to be used towards food items, non-alcoholic drinks or invitation/advertising costs only.

3.         Re-opens Summer with your Neighbours 2023-24 applications for the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton area to allow for the remaining unallocated funding and any unspent funding by funding recipients noted in Resolution 1, to be applied towards events that meet the Summer with your Neighbours criteria.

4.         Delegates authority to the Manager Community Governance (Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton) to consider and make decisions on late applications received for the Summer with your Neighbours 2023-24 Fund in accordance with the fund criteria, and to approve grants up to a maximum of $200 per application.

3.   Key Points Ngā Take Matua

Strategic Alignment Te Rautaki Tīaroaro

3.1       The recommendation is strongly aligned to the Strategic Framework and in particular the strategic priority of Strengthening Communities. It will provide a strong sense of community, active participation in civic life, safe and healthy communities, celebration of our identity through arts, culture, heritage and sport, valuing the voices of children and young people.

Decision Making Authority Te Mana Whakatau

3.2       The Community Board has the delegated authority to determine the allocation of its Summer with your Neighbours Fund.

3.2.1   Allocations must be consistent with any policies, standards or criteria adopted by the Council.

3.2.2   The Fund does not cover:

·     Legal challenges or Environment Court challenges against the Council, Council Controlled organisations or Community Board decisions

·     Projects or initiatives that change the scope of a Council project or that will lead to ongoing operational costs to the Council (though Community Boards can recommend to the Council that it consider a grant for this purpose).

Assessment of Significance and Engagement Te Aromatawai Whakahirahira

3.3       The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

3.4       The level of significance was determined by the number of people affected and/or with an interest.

3.5       Due to the assessment of low significance, no further community engagement and consultation is required.

Discussion Kōrerorero

3.6       At its meeting on 10 August 2023, the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board resolved to allocate $4,500 from its 2023-24 Discretionary Response Fund to its 2023-24 Summer with your Neighbours Fund.

3.7       Summer with your Neighbours is about bringing people closer together and celebrating the unique and diverse mix of each neighbourhood.

3.8       Local community groups and previous applicants were sent information inviting them to apply for Summer with your Neighbours funding as allocated by the Board.

3.9       Summer with your Neighbours will run from 21 October 2023 to 31 March 2024.  Applications for funding opened on 13 July 2023 and closed at 5pm on Friday 11 August 2023.

3.10    By the closing date, 34 applications were received. As two events were to be held in close locality, following agreement from the applicants the applications were merged together. The applications were assessed to ensure that they meet the guidelines for Summer with your Neighbours events.

3.11    Staff recommendations were based on the following, in order to maintain consistency over the allocation of recommendations:

·    A city-wide formula of $2.50 per person has been applied as a consistent approach to applications. When the requested amount is less than the $2.50 per head formula, the requested amount is what has been recommended.

·    A maximum of $200 per event was applied to all applicants.

·    Where two approximate attendee numbers have been noted, recommendations are based on the higher approximate figure.

3.12    Organisers of events that are scheduled to take place in public spaces situated within an alcohol ban area, will be notified of the ban requirements.

3.13    A matrix outlining the applications and staff recommendations is attached (Attachment A), along with the Summer with your Neighbours Guidelines (Attachment B) that accompany the application details.

3.14    Late applications may come in from community members who were not in a position to apply earlier, therefore staff are recommending that the funding unallocated at this meeting and or unspent funding by Summer with your neighbours 2023-24 recipients noted in Resolution 1 of the Officer Recommendations, be made available to fund these late applications where appropriate with delegation to the Community Governance Manager to approve funding for any of these applications.

The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton community could be advised of the ongoing opportunity to apply for funding towards neighbourhood events.

3.3       Participation in and Contribution to Decision Making

3.3.1   Report back on other Activities contributing to Community Board Plan [for items not included in the above table but are included in Community Board Plan]

·     Platinum Park – Installation of a seat

A petition with 182 signatures containing a request for a seat to be installed in Platinum Park in Wigram was presented to the Board meeting on 15 June 2023.

The presenters advised that the reserve area is close to a retirement village and forms part of the daily walking route for many residents. A bench to sit on would provide a useful resting place.

The Board received the petition and referred the request for installation of a bench in Platinum Park to staff for investigation.

Following investigation, and after consultation with petitioners as to location a bench has now been installed.

3.3.2   Council Engagement and Consultation.

·     Wigram and Hayton Road intersection upgrade

Open for feedback: 7 August – 27 August 2023.

The upgrade will accommodate a new vehicle entry to Ngā Puna Wai sports Hub with new traffic lights and a safe speed platform and provide lane markings for vehicles and cyclists.

The shared path that connects The Runway, Contrail Street and Skyhawk Road will be extended along Wigram Road to the new intersection to provide safer access for pedestrians and cyclists to Hayton Road and Ngā Puna Wai.

The Southern motorway underpass will be upgraded and sealed to provide a new vehicle entry point into Ngā Puna Wai, with restricted access for small vehicles only and access for pedestrians and cyclists at all times.

·     Draft Naming Policy

Open for feedback: 7 August – 27 August 2023.

This policy replaces two policies made in 1993; Roads-and-rights-of-way-naming policy and Reserves and facilities naming policy. The purpose of this policy is to:

·    Provide a consistent approach to the naming of roads, parks and facilities.

·    Recognise our local identity, unique environment, and social and cultural heritage.

·    Support and acknowledge mana whenua and reflect obligations under the Treaty of Waitangi.

·    Contribute to cultural vibrancy and promote a sense of connection with our diverse communities.

·    Ensure that names are enduring and have a meaningful connection to the locality,

·    Have regard to the views of interested parties and communities in choosing names.

·    Provide names that are not easily confused with other similar names and assist with wayfinding.

The submission lodged on behalf of the Board is attached (Attachment C).

·     Outdoor Dining Policy review

There are currently outdoor dining policies that date from 1998 and 2006 and are no longer fit for purpose. It is proposed to replace the two outdated policies with one single Outdoor Dining Policy that’s more user-friendly and aligns better with related bylaws and policies. Most outdoor dining takes place on private land – this policy only applies to outdoor dining activities that take place on open public space like roads, footpaths, and parks.

The Draft Policy requires:

·    That outdoor dining areas are accessible for pedestrians of all ages and abilities including users of mobility devices.

·    Licensees to display smokefree and vapefree signage and to remove ashtrays or other receptacles for smoking or vaping litter.

·    An accessible pathway alongside outdoor dining areas on the footpath, consistent with Waka Kotahi guidance.

·    Licensees to manage all waste and litter associated with their outdoor dining activity.

·    A defined term for licences (of up to three years) rather than the current open-ended term.

·    simplified application process for businesses to apply for a licence by developing new online forms in plain English.

The policy will be supported by new Outdoor Dining Guidelines, which provide guidance on best practice for the design and operation of outdoor dining areas, along with the standard conditions attached to licences.

The submission lodged on behalf of the Board is attached (Attachment D).

·     What Matters Most

The What Matters Most community engagement initiative finished on 15 August, as a pre-engagement exercise seeking input to inform the 2023-2034 Long Term Plan. Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board Members and Community Governance staff facilitated and/or supported over 20 events within the Community Board area. This included engagement at community venues, libraries, shopping centres, community meetings and a retirement village.

4.   Advice Provided to the Community Board Ngā Kupu Tohutohu ka hoatu ki te Poari Hapori  

4.1       Whitburn Ave/Collier Drive intersection

During Elected members Information Exchange at the Board meeting on 11 May 2023 the Board discussed local concern that the give way signs at the intersection of Whitburn Avenue and Collier Drive may be missed by some drivers and agreed to request staff advice on any improvements that could be made to enhance the visibility of the signs.

Transport staff have now responded that they have visited the intersection during day time and night time conditions and consider the statutory signage to be visible in both conditions. They have also undertaken a crash investigation and find no crashes have been recorded at the intersection. As part of the subdivision road design process the intersection has been road safety audited and no issues were identified with regard to the effectiveness of the giveway signage which adopts the signage standards as set out in the Council’s standards and in the Waka Kotahi draft Traffic Control Devices Manual part 4 (intersections).

There has been no pattern of complaints regarding this intersection that triggers a need to depart from a standard design. As a new and yet to be completed residential subdivision traffic movement patterns are in a settling down period and will change further when the subdivision is completed and Colliers Drive is connected to Halswell Road. Once connected, the movement priorities at the intersection will be further reinforced with Collier Drive – as a collector road forming a more dominant traffic movement pattern over the local Whitburn Avenue which will enhance the awareness of the need to giveway and heed the giveway signage.

Staff have indicated that they will continue to monitor crash data associated with this intersection, however at this stage they do not consider there is sufficient cause to amend the intersection signage at this time.

4.2       Requested changes to Whincops/Quaifes Roads

At the meeting on 9 March 2023 the Halswell Residents’ Association made a deputation regarding the Knights Stream School Area Improvements Report advising that the Association had made a submission in response to the consultation on Knights Stream School Area Improvements and requested that modal filters be installed at the Quaifes Road end of Whincops Road to prevent motor vehicle access whilst allowing pedestrian and cyclists to pass. The Association noted that Whincops Road is heavily used by vehicles travelling from Selwyn District towards the city and the installation of modal filters would ensure Whincops Road would operate as a purely local road and would not only make the road safer but should also increase the perception of safety.

In addition to approving the proposed safety improvements the Board requested staff provide advice on the future projected levels of traffic in the wider south Halswell area and the potential benefits of measures such as the possible installation of Modal Filters or roundabout at the Quaifes Road end of Whincops Road.

The following advice has been received in response:

“In regard to predicted levels of traffic in the wider south Halswell area we have extracted the following CAST model volume plots:

Time slice:

AM Peak: 0800 – 0900

PM Peak: 1630 – 1730

2028 AM and PM Volumes

2038 AM and PM Volumes

2021 vs 2028 AM and PM Volume Difference Plots (Red: increased volumes & Green: decreased volumes)

2021 vs 2038 AM and PM Volume Difference Plots (Red: increased volumes & Green: decreased volumes)

Daily flows can be estimated by multiplying the peak hour flows shown in the plots by a factor of 10.

Whincops as a collector road has a design capacity of between 6000-8000 vehicles per day. The modelled volume plots show that such volumes are not predicted to occur until 2038. Therefore there is currently sufficient carrying capacity along Whincops Road.

In terms of providing a roundabout at Whincops/Quaifes, this would require significant land purchase and engineering to achieve, which can be costly and would need to be a specific project in the Long Term Plan. Currently the Quaifes Road/Whincops Road intersection is in the ‘Low - medium’ collective risk band with 1 injury crash within the last 10 year period. Waka Kotahi criteria in the Standard Safety Interventions Toolkit for 51% co-funding for a roundabout specifically as a safety intervention includes that collective risk must be medium-high or greater, and 3 or more injury crashes in 5 years.

There are other funding pathways available from Waka Kotahi but this would require a strong case to be made to Waka Kotahi for funding.  In terms of traffic volumes and network efficiency, the traffic volumes approaching the intersection do not warrant such an intervention. Given the limited identified network and safety benefits this is unlikely to be successful in securing such funding, and as a result implementing this would (in the absence of any other funding source) need to be funded entirely by Council, which makes it a much lower priority. At present given the information available there is not a strong enough case to be made for this location to be funded in the Long Term Plan.

The draft Christchurch Transport Plan (draft CTP) mentions use of modal filters and was released in August 2022 prior to the local government elections, however, note that it has not yet gone through the public consultation process nor been endorsed by Council and as a result is not an adopted strategic plan. However, this draft plan proposes to first trial modal filters on low traffic Local Streets. Whincops Road is not classified as a ‘Local Street’ under the One Network Framework (ONF) referenced in the draft CTP, it is an Urban Connector which is similar to the collector road status in the Council’s District Plan.

A modal filter would be inappropriate given the collector (Urban Connector) status of Whincops which serves to enable traffic to travel through the link (including buses if ECan choose to run a services along here) and offers a link to the arterial network (Halswell Junction Road). Such a measure which would deny vehicle traffic to enter/exit the south of Whincops would also have the effect of re-routing traffic along less appropriate local roads.”

4.3       Nor'West Arc Cycleway - Section 3A - contract awarded

Staff have provided the attached memorandum (Attachment B) to inform the Board that the contract for the civil roading works for the Nor’West Arc Cycleway Section 3A (University to Jellie Park) has been awarded to Fulton Hogan Limited.

The programme is due to start in early September with construction scheduled to be completed in June 2024. Work will begin at the Jellie Park end and progress towards the University.

4.4       Start Work Notices

Various Start Work Notices have been sent to the Board throughout the month. All city-wide start work notices can be found at: https://ccc.govt.nz/transport/works.

4.5       Graffiti Snapshot

For the Board’s information, attached is a Graffiti Snapshot, an update on graffiti as of July 2023 (refer Attachment E).

4.7       Community Parks Bimonthly Community Board Update - August 2023

It is great to see the parks heavily utilised over winter and, apart from some heavy rainfall in parts, we have had a good season. We experienced some challenges with mowing activity due to ground conditions. We offset this by achieving bedding plant changes, community partnership planting days and green asset renewal projects.  All in all, the internal staff have been kept really busy!

Planting season has been going very well and is due to close in the end of September to allow the Community Partnership Rangers to get into planning, assisting with resident’s requests and maintaining sites.

It was brought to the attention of the Parks Unit, that Sockburn Park needed some overlooked maintenance issues addressed. After meeting with local stakeholders, the Parks Unit has made improvements to the following:

·    Lifted tree line along the street edge on Weaver Place, to increase visibility to the park.

·    Pruned the amenity garden beds to improve aesthetics and remove pest weeds.

·    Removed the unnecessary barbed wire fence.

·    Replaced damage bollards by the car park on Takaro Avenue.

·    Removed unnecessary weedy gravel and prepared the ground for wild-flower planting (not yet confirmed).

·    Installed a new bollard across the car park entrance on Takaro Avenue, so the pre-school can lock it at night, to avoid anti-social behaviour.

In 2022, tamariki from Seven Oaks Primary School presented to the Community Board and advocated for new park furniture and some additional signage for Quaifes Road Springlands.

Through the support of the Halswell MenzShed, two new, extra-large benches were installed in winter 2023, allowing the children somewhere to sit when they are undertaking Education Outside the Classroom.

The dedicated group of trappers continues to undertake weekly trap checks and have doubled their number of traps to 40. The project is driven by a desire to see an increase in native birdlife in the wetland area.

Karakia Whakamutunga

Unuhia, unuhia

Unuhia ki te uru tapu nui

Kia wātea, kia māmā, te ngākau,

Te tinana te wairua i te ara takatā

Koia rā e Rongo, whakairia ake ki runga

Kia tina! TINA! Hui e! TĀIKI E!

Draw on, draw on,
Draw on the supreme sacredness
To clear, to free the heart, the body and the spirit of mankind
Rongo, suspended high above us (i.e. in ‘heaven’)
Draw together! Affirm!
