5.1 Halswell Local Play Spaces - Landscape Plans Approval

Gareth Popplestone and Karen Chalmers, local residents, spoke to the Board regarding the proposals for Halswell Local Play Spaces - Landscape Plans Approval report.

Mr Popplestone and Ms Chalmers advised that they had informally gathered local opinion on the use of play spaces in Halswell that indicated that residents would like to see swing sets at all four local parks. In addition, they were concerned that proposals to remove rubbish bins from Westbrooke and Ridder Reserves would result in litter that would then need to be removed by the Council.

8. Halswell Junction Road Extension - New road name for Halswell Junction Road cul-de-sac
Reference / Te Tohutoro:	23/1737101
Report of / Te Pou Matua:	Lindsay White, Senior Project Manager – Transport, Lindsay.White@ccc.govt.nz Aviva Cui, Engagement Lead, Aviva.Cui@ccc.govt.nz
Senior Manager / Pouwhakarae:	Jane Parfitt, Interim General Manager Infrastructure, Planning and Regulatory Services (Jane.Parfitt@ccc.govt.nz)

1. Purpose and Origin of Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 This report is to present the results of the recent consultation on the new road name for the cul-de-sac section of Halswell Junction Road, to the Community Board for a decision.

1.2 This report is staff generated.

1.3 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 low number of people affected and level of impact of those affected.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board:

1. Approves Buffalo Place as the new road name for the cul-de-sac section of Halswell Junction Road.

3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1 As part of the Halswell Junction Road Extension project, a section of Halswell Junction Road from Foremans Road to Waterloo Road becomes a cul-de-sac in the final design: see red outlined area in Attachment A.

3.2 Through the design stage of the project, it was considered how the road names would function in the area once the new link road and new level crossing were in place, and whether the new link road or the cul-de-sac section would require a new name and numbering.

3.3 Due to Halswell Junction Road continuing in a northwest direction the northern side of the railway adjacent to Waterloo Business Park, it was decided that the new link road should become Halswell Junction Road improving legibility for road users. Halswell Junction Road would still become Waterloo Road on the northern side of the new level crossing but only for a short distance before becoming Halswell Junction Road again as shown in the image below.

Figure 1- Map from GIS detailing the road layout of Halswell Junction Road north of the railway line.

The new link road is shown in blue and where the road will be made into a cul-de-sac indicated by the red cross.

3.4 The consultation for the new road name was focused on those affected by the change in road name. The Greater Hornby residents Association and the Hornby Panthers Rugby League Club were also asked for feedback but limited to one vote of behalf of their organisations. This process was expanded to include early engagement with the community to gather suggested road names to take to consultation.

3.5 The recommended road names have been checked against existing road names in Christchurch and bordering districts, for duplication, alternative spelling or other similarities in spelling or pronunciation to avoid the potential for confusion. The proposed names are considered sufficiently different to existing road names.

3.6 The recommended road names have been checked against the Council’s Roads and Right-of Way Naming Policy dated 2 November 1993 and are considered to be consistent with this policy.

3.7 The recommended road names have also been checked against the Australia and New Zealand Standard AS/NZA 4819:2011 Rural and Urban Addressing. The names are considered to be consistent with the Standard unless stated otherwise below.

3.8 Consultation has also been undertaken with Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) who has raised no concerns with the proposed road names.

3.9 The recommended road names have been accompanied by an explanation of the background to the names- please refer to Attachment B.

3.10 The project will fund the new property numbers for the properties on the cul-de-sac. This will be progressed once the new name has been decided and the numbering process can take place, however no road name or numbering change can take place until the new link road including new level crossing is operational.

4. Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1 Retain the Halswell Junction Road name for the cul-de-sac section and rename the new link road.

4.1.1 This option was discounted as it would be confusing for road users heading north or south. Halswell Junction Road would end at the cul-de-sac and then start again at the roundabout with Waterloo Road adjacent to the Waterloo Business Park.

4.2 Retain the Halswell Junction Road name for the cul-de-sac section but add East to the road name.

4.2.1 Renaming the cul-de-sac ‘Halswell Junction Road East’ was also considered, but when the emergency services were approached, they confirmed that adding east/west to the end of a road name causes difficulty and confusion on their systems when attending addresses, as they cannot always see the end of the road name. Based on this information this option was discounted.

5. Community Views and Preferences Ngā mariu ā-Hāpori

Public Consultation Te Tukanga Kōrerorero

5.1 Early engagement inviting potential road name suggestions with a local history connection, started on 31 July 2023. A letter was delivered to affected residents requesting any name suggestions for the road. The project team also worked with the Greater Hornby Residents Association, Hornby Panthers Rugby League Club and Insite Library team to gather other name suggestions utilising their local knowledge.

5.2 Of the 14 names suggested during the early engagement, 11 names were in keeping with Council’s Roads and Right-of Way Naming Policy and shortlisted for consultation. The suggested names were checked with Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) to ensure the names were acceptable and there was no duplication with other street names.

5.3 A letter was delivered to the affected residents on 02 October 2023 inviting feedback on the shortlisted names via the Korero mai webpage. Residents were asked to rank their three preferred names. The Greater Hornby Residents Association and the Hornby Panthers Rugby League Club were also invited to provide feedback on behalf of their members and were limited to one submission each.

5.4 The webpage was only accessible via the link shared with the stakeholders mentioned above, with the intention of feedback being limited to those who would have their address changed, the resident’s association and the rugby league club. However, the link was accidentally shared by a Residents Association on their Facebook pages, resulting in feedback from a wider group. The additional submissions have not been included in the below analysis but are included in a table for reference- refer to Attachment C.

Summary of Submissions Ngā Tāpaetanga

5.5 We received feedback from 31 individuals and three organisations. However, 15 were from individuals not living on the affected street, leaving 19 valid submissions. Of the 20 properties on the affected street, we heard from 14 (this includes one organisation) (70%).

5.6 By using reverse weighting (first choice gets three points, second choice two and third, one) for the ranked names, Buffalo Place was preferred (27), followed by Panther Place (17), and John Leslie Place/Close (14).

Name	First choice (weighting）	Second choice (weighting）	Third choice (weighting）	Total weighting
Buffalo Place	3 (9）	8 (16)	2 (2)	27

Report of / Te Pou Matua:	Ann Tomlinson, Project Manager (Ann.Tomlinson@ccc.govt.nz)
Senior Manager / Pouwhakarae:	Lynette Ellis, Head of Transport & Waste Management (Lynette.Ellis@ccc.govt.nz)

1. Purpose and Origin of Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is for the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board to approve the Bradshaw Terrace street renewal scheme design following community engagement and to proceed to construction.

1.2 This report has been written to address the poor condition of transport assets on Bradshaw Terrace, including the carriageway and footpaths. This project is also part of the Christchurch Regeneration Acceleration Facility (CRAF) programme for Riccarton.

1.3 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 low level of impact or change to the existing street layout and low number of people affected by the recommended proposal. The community engagement outlined in this report reflects the assessment.

3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1 Bradshaw Terrace is a low-volume residential street that intersects with Straven Road in Riccarton. It is approximately 190 metres long, serving as a local road.

3.2 Bradshaw Terrace has existing kerb and dish channel and carriageway which are failing. The carriageway is 14 metres wide and has an uneven vertical profile. The footpaths are narrow, uneven, patched and cracking.

3.3 Due to the flat topography of the road, there is often stagnant water and silting in the dish channel and during high rainfall events water has been known to accumulate along the road, exacerbated by lack of sumps.

3.4 The current road width is 10.3 metres, this will be reduced to 9 metres (and 7 metres at the entrance) to support the residential nature of the street, with a full road reconstruction, including new kerb and channel, widened footpaths and new grass berms.

3.5 There are currently no street trees and it is proposed to plant Acer plantanoides ‘Globsum’ as they are relatively small growing, suitable for the street and tolerate both wet and dry conditions. This follows the requirement of the Christchurch City Council Tree Policy – create opportunities for tree planting as per policy 1.1, 1.2 ad 1.3.

3.6 New landscaping areas will be developed at the entrance to the street, and on the inside of the bend, adjacent to 10 Bradshaw Terrace.

3.7 Apart from the removal of a small amount of parking at the cul-de-sac head to allow safe turning manoeuvres at the end of the street, the current parking layout remains the same, including all current P120.

3.8 To improve pedestrian safety, tactiles will be installed on the existing Straven Road informal crossing point south of Bradshaw Terrace. Tactiles are also to be installed at the threshold across Bradshaw Terrace.

4. Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1 No alternative options were considered as there is an existing scheme that was approved in 2010 prior to the Canterbury earthquakes.

4.2 The current scheme is a revision of the previous scheme, with the following updates made:

4.2.1 Foothpath width increased to 1.8m to comply with the new Pedestrian Network Guidance.

4.2.2 More trees planted than previous scheme as per the Christchurch City Council Tree Policy, including the requirement to create opportunities for tree planting as per Policy 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3.

4.2.3 Change of tree species to reflect narrower berms due to increased footpath width and to reflect the ground conditions.

4.2.4 Installation of a small section of no stopping at the cul-de-sac head to allow for large vehicles to safely turn and to maximise on-street parking numbers.

5. Detail Te Whakamahuki

5.1 The Christchurch Regeneration Acceleration Facility (CRAF) is a funding package of $40 million from Treasury for transport projects in Christchurch. The purpose of the funding is to make a difference to affected communities by improving liveability and to support their ongoing regeneration.

5.2 The CRAF investment in roading and transport improvements addresses condition, and safety and access issues. It acts as a catalyst towards the development of a high-quality, safe, and reliable transport network. It improves connectivity and customer experience across Christchurch city and also improves safety outcomes and encouraging more people to walk, bike or use public transport.

5.3 The CRAF funding includes $30 million for targeted roading and transport improvements to deliver integrated safety, modal choice and asset improvements to communities which experienced significant damage and disruption, or increased transport demand/use due to a change in travel patterns following the earthquakes in five areas – Riccarton, Richmond, Linwood/Woolston, New Brighton and Spreydon/Somerfield/Waltham/Beckenham.

5.4 The targeted roading and transport improvements were identified through a review of the streets in the area by transport engineers and by asking the local community what improvements they wanted to see in their area.

5.5 There has been a project for a street renewal of Bradshaw Terrace started in 2010 and 2017. Both were put on hold due to reprioritised work after the earthquakes and then lack of funds.

5.6 During consultation in 2022 where we asked the community for projects to be funded by CRAF, a number of submissions related to previous attempts to undertake street renewal works on Bradshaw Terrace and the need for this work to happen, as the street has deteriorated even further.

5.7 Due to the high level of community anticipation from residents for this project to be delivered, and support from the Community Board, this project was selected as a CRAF project.

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

5.8.1 Riccarton Ward

5.8.2 Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board

Public Consultation Te Tukanga Kōrerorero

5.1 Residents on the street and key stakeholders were invited to provide feedback from 6 November 2023 until 20 November 2023.

5.2 An email was sent to 11 key stakeholders, including emergency services (FENZ, NZ Police, St John), AA, Orion and Riccarton Bush-Kilmarnock Residents Association.

5.3 Residents of Bradshaw Terrace, including absentee owners, received a letter on 6 November 2023, informing them of the plan for the street renewal and inviting them to get in touch if they had questions or feedback.

5.4 A street meeting was requested by residents and held on 15 November 2023. Elected members for the Riccarton ward were invited to attend.

Summary of Feedback Ngā Tāpaetanga

5.5 Six residents attended the street meeting and a further two provided feedback by phone or email.

5.6 At this meeting, residents raised queries on the necessity of car parking loss for the turnaround area, concern around the tree species selection, tree height and debris, how the plan would improve stormwater and flooding, construction/access timeframes, whether the plan would improve road condition, specific queries on footpath angles and width. A request was also raised to investigate “Keep Clear” paint on Straven Road at the entrance to the street. Staff provided responses to residents at this meeting.

5.7 Feedback received via email and phone included a request to investigate specific landscaping outside 10 Bradshaw Terrace, and concern about loss of on-street car parks.

5.8 Key issues and themes raised by residents at the street meeting and via email are summarised and responded to by staff below:

Feedback	Staff response
Concern about tree species selection, including height of trees, number of trees, shade, and potential debris	· The planned tree planting aligns with the Council’s Tree Policy, Urban Forest Plan and Climate Resilience Strategy, which require Council to plant and maintain trees to increase canopy cover. Acer platanoides ‘Globosum’ trees are relatively small growing, maturing at less than six metres in height. · Other species were considered, including evergreen species, and Acer platanoides ‘Globosum’ was chosen due to the narrow berms that will be constructed and the ground conditions within the street. · Due to the small mature size of the trees excessive shading of properties is highly unlikely, and the trees are expected to provide shading benefits within the street. · Shading from trees is beneficial, by reducing heat in summer and extending the life of infrastructure such as asphalt. · As the trees are small growing, we will plant more than one tree outside each property where possible to assist with maximising canopy cover within the street, in accordance with the Urban Forest Plan. · Leaf litter debris is not expected to be significant as the trees are small growing. · Street cleaning frequency increases in autumn to manage leaf litter as part of routine maintenance.
Concern about removal of on-street parking outside 17 and 19 Bradshaw Terrace	· The road width needs to be reduced and the footpaths built out to pass the safety audit. This means that parking on one side of the turnaround area needs to be removed to allow larger vehicles, such as rubbish trucks, to safely turn. · The consensus at the street meeting is that it is preferred to lose 2-3 on-street carparks outside 17 and 19 Bradshaw, as opposed to losing nine on-street carparks should no stopping lines be moved to the opposite side of the turnaround area (outside 10 Bradshaw).
Request to investigate adequate lighting	· Following a lighting assessment in 2017, a new streetlight was added to the south side of Bradshaw Terrace at the Straven Road intersection. The street is now compliant and not considered to need any further lighting.
A request for a “keep clear” on Straven Road at the intersection	· Due to the small number of properties and the low number of vehicle movements during the day, a “Keep Clear” on Straven Road at the intersection with Bradshaw Terrace is not supported by our Traffic Operations Team. These can also increase risk to cyclists when vehicles are let into a line of traffic but do not yield to cyclists who have the right of way.

12. Sir James Wattie Drive Proposed No Stopping Restrictions
Reference Te Tohutoro:	23/1940489
Report of Te Pou Matua:	Andrew Hensley. Traffic Engineer andrew.hensley@ccc.govt.nz
Senior Leader Pouwhakarae:	Mary Richardson, Acting General Manager Infrastructure, Planning & Regulatory Services, mary.richardson@ccc.govt.nz

1. Purpose of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 To seek the approval of the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board to install no stopping restrictions in Sir James Wattie Drive. This report has been written following a request from an industrial business to improve heavy vehicle access.

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. The length of No Stopping in this option is to improve heavy vehicle access at 20 Sir James Wattie Drive, determined by vehicle tracking analysis and site visits.

2. Staff Recommendations / Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board:

1. Approves that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the south eastern side of Sir James Wattie Drive commencing at a point 107 metres north east of its intersection with Gallagher Drive and extending in a north easterly direction for a distance of 28 metres, as shown on Attachment A- to the report on the meeting agenda Plan TG146868 dated 27/11/2023.

2. Approves that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the north western side of Sir James Wattie Drive commencing at a point 107 metres north east of its intersection with Gallagher Drive and extending in a north easterly direction for a distance of 28 metres, as shown on Attachment A to the report on the meeting agenda - Plan TG146868 dated 27/11/23.

3. 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 in 1. and 2.

4. Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road marking that evidence the restrictions described in1.,2. and 3. are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1 Heavy vehicle access issues have been raised by an industrial business at 20 Sir James Wattie Drive. When vehicles are parked either side and opposite the southern vehicle crossing of this property, access can be restricted at times due to the remaining usable carriageway widths.

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

3.3 Install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A. The lengths of No Stopping in this option have been determined by vehicle tracking analysis and site visits.

4. Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1 Maintain the status quo – do not install no stopping restrictions.

4.2 The advantages of this option include:

4. Advice Provided to the Community Board

4.1 Cycle parking facilities in the Broomfield and Yaldhurst area

At the Board meeting on 14 September 2023, it was noted that there is currently a lack of cycle parking facilities in the Broomfield and Yaldhurst area, in the vicinity of Masham Road where people cycle to connect with bus services and the Board requested that staff investigate and provide advice on the provision on cycle parking facilities in the vicinity of Masham Road, Broomfield.

Staff have provided the attached memorandum in response (see Attachment A). Staff advise that there has been a request from a bus user to install a cycle parking facility near bus stops 24674 and 42315 on Masham Road near Kintyre Drive and it is considered that this facility may improve access to public transport for residents residing in residential area west of Masham Road, between Buchanans Road and Yaldhurst Road where there are no bus routes.

Staff note that the mentioned bus stops are situated on a state highway and that any enhancements or upgrades will need to be considered by Waka Kotahi as the asset owner. Staff have discussed the matter with appropriate Waka Kotahi staff who have agreed to incorporate the installation of cycle hoops at bus stop 24674 as a component of its Public Transport Infrastructure Low-Cost Low-Risk Programme. This project is currently projected to commence next year, pending approval for funding.

4.2 Halswell Junction Road Extension - Project Update

Staff have provided an update on the Halswell Junction Road Extension (see Attachment E). Construction has progressed well and the main invasive roading works are expected to be completed by the end of December 2023.

The new link road is formed and surfaced, and currently the paving works are underway on the Foremans Road intersection and along Halswell Junction Road between Main South Road (SH1) and Waterloo Road, where the existing level crossing is located. Final surfacing is planned to be completed sitewide in mid-December over a weekend road closure.

Over the Christmas break there will be minimal traffic management in place to deter unnecessary traffic from using the new link road, and the one-way system will be removed allowing traffic to flow north and south on Halswell Junction Road. The one-way system (west) and road closure (east) on Foremans Road will be removed by the end of November.

In January 2024, work will begin on Waterloo Road to install the section of the South Express Major Cycleway. This is expected to take two months and be complete in February 2024. No further works can take place until the KiwiRail works at the railway are completed.

Once the KiwiRail works are complete, the new level crossing will be commissioned, the existing level crossing decommissioned, and traffic will begin using the new link road to travel north on Halswell Junction Road. Following this, the roading contractor will return to construct the cul-de-sac section of Halswell Junction Road.

4.3 Matatiki Hornby Centre

Within the building, there is significant progress being made in all areas. Pool liners for the Learn to Swim pool and Toddlers’ pool have been installed, and work on the remaining pools is scheduled to commence prior to December 2023.

Painting in the library has now finished, and carpet is going in. Joinery work is also getting underway and will continue over the coming weeks. The shelving installation is the next big step for the new library.

Behind the scenes

Furniture and equipment procurement is being progressed, with over 70% by value now committed. Planning for the equipment deployment is underway in preparation for the new year.

Work on the programme development and marketing workstreams are also progressing well.

The community is being updated as the project progresses, with regular Newsline stories, e-newsletters, and social media posts.

4.4 Summer pools and paddling pools 2023-24 Season

From Saturday 18 November, the Norman Kirk Memorial pool in Lyttelton, the Templeton summer pool, and Jellie Park summer pool in Burnside and Waltham summer pool will all be open.
