1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek approval for the installation of speed humps on Cypress Street, Linwood.

1.2 The report is in response to resident complaints with regard to speed and anti-social road user behaviour.

1.3 The recommended option is to install four speed humps in accordance with Attachment A.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board:

1. Receives the information in the Cypress Street Speed Humps Report.

2. Notes that the decision in this report is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

3. Approves the installation of four speed humps with associated road marking and signage on Cypress Street at the locations noted on the plan attached to Agenda report as Attachment A (tg146867 dated 21 May 2024).

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 In response to residents complaints regarding anti-social road user behaviour and speeding on Cypress Street, Linwood, it is proposed to install four speed humps.

3.2 The issue has been highlighted to Council over a number of years, including a residents presentation to Council as part of Safer Speed Hearings in June 2023. A repeated pattern of behaviour is evident and attempts to resolve the issue through the involvement of Police have not provided a long term solution.

3.3 As funding is available within the Transport Unit’s Minor Safety Intervention Programme it is proposed to install traffic calming measures to address this behaviour. The proposal supports wider initiatives within the surrounding area – to be implemented through the Bromley Action Plan.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 Improving safety on local roads in Christchurch is a priority for CCC, with a Level of Service target of reducing the number of death and serious injury crashes on the local road network by 40% by 2030.

4.2 Issues with anti-social road use behaviour on Cypress Street have been brought to Council's attention through residents’ complaints over recent years. In June 2023 a resident of the street presented to Council on the issue during hearings for Safe Speed Neighbourhoods. The presentation including video footage highlighting vehicles speeding and racing on the street which occurs on a regular basis. An action was put to staff to investigate solutions.

4.3 The Transport Unit have investigated this issue further and are looking to implement speed humps along the length of the street through the Minor Safety Intervention programme.

4.4 Cypress Street is classified as a Local Road in Council’s roading hierarchy, to be used primarily for access to properties rather than catering for through traffic. Due to the layout of the local network, the street can be used by some drivers as a shortcut between Ruru Road and Pages Road.

4.5 The most recent count on the street was undertaken in February 2021 and showed an average daily traffic of 1,150 veh per day. The average measured speed was 47.3 km/hr and the 85^th percentile speed 55.2 km/hr. The maximum measured speed during the week long survey was in the range of 110‑120 km/hr.

4.6 A search of Waka Kotahi’s Crash Analysis System indicates there have been no reported crashes on Cypress Street within the last five years (2019-2024).

4.7 The proposed works consist of:

· Four speed humps along the length of Cypress Street, spaced at around 80 metres which is within the range of recommended spacing to achieve meaningful speed reductions.

· Signage and marking to highlight the speed humps.

· Tactile pavers at pedestrian crossing points at the intersections with Ruru Road and Rudds Road.

4.8 The project is to be funded from the Minor Safety Intervention Programme. It is not part of the Bromley Transport Action Plan, which is being worked on separately and a workshop is scheduled for late June to discuss this with the Board. The works proposed on Cypress Street complement the scope/objectives of the Plan and the types of interventions which are likely to be considered for implementation.

4.9 Additionally, the speed limit on Cypress Street has been reduced to 30km/hr along with other streets in the area as part of the Safe Speed Neighbourhoods programme, as approved by Council in July 2023.

4.10 The following related memos/information were circulated to the members of the meeting:

Date	Subject
29/02/24	Cypress Street Speed Humps (Attachment B)

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

4.11 The following reasonably practicable options were considered and are assessed in this report:

· Install four speed humps along the length of Cypress Street between Rudds Road and Ruru Road.

· Do Nothing.

4.12 The following options were considered but ruled out:

· Option B – Single road humps on entry to Cypress Street and its intersections with Ruru Road (southern end) and Rudds Road (northern end). Whilst expected to have some impact in terms of discouraging use of this route, the absence of any speed reduction devices within the midblock section would mean that issues with excessive speed are less likely to be mitigated.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.13 Preferred Option: Speed Humps.

4.13.1 Option Description: Speed humps at four locations.

4.13.2 Option Advantages

· The placement of humps on entry to Cypress Street at its intersections with Rudds Road (northern end) and Ruru Road (southern end) will deter drivers from travelling along Cypress Street.

4.13.3 Option Disadvantages

· May push activities to other parts of the city.

· Potential noise issues from acceleration and deceleration between speed humps.

4.14 Do Nothing

4.14.1 Option Description: Leave the street in its current form.

4.14.2 Option Advantages

· No cost to Council to implement.

4.14.3 Option Disadvantages

· Without any form of traffic calming, and reliance on Police enforcement to deter anti-social road user behaviour, the current pattern of behaviour is likely continue leaving the concerns of residents unaddressed.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.15 The recommended option of using speed humps (vertical deflection devices) for traffic calming aligns with industry-standard guidance such as that outlined in the Standard safety intervention toolkit handbook produced by Waka Kotahi NZTA, the Austroads design guides and design guidance by Waka Kotahi NZTA.

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 The Aranui neighbourhood is a busy location used by many people travelling to school or work, accessing the shops, or moving across the community. Whether people are travelling through this area on foot, by bicycle, by bus or driving, they should be able to do so safely and have the opportunities to choose alternative modes of transportation.

3.2 The Streets for People project was constructed in February/March 2024. A monitoring and evaluation plan was developed to understand the project's impact. This report summarises the data collection completed during the trial construction period to show how the project has impacted the improvements installed. The key outcomes of the data analysis to date are:

· The preliminary data shows that the project has positive outcomes for key transport trends.

· Lower vehicle speeds at eight out of nine count locations, including outside the three schools. A significant 12 km/h drop in vehicle speed outside the Hampshire Street Shops.

· Data shows a 14% increase in active travel use at Haeata Community Campus.

· More students want to change their travel habits and use active modes to get to Haeata Community Campus.

3.3 Based on the feedback data gathered during consultation, school surveys, safety audits, and monitoring and evaluation, the recommended option is Option D:

· Retention of the speed humps

· Retention of the safer speed platforms

· Replace the bollards with kerb buildouts at a slightly amended position

· Removal of narrowing at the Tahuna Street/Shortland Street intersection

· Removal of physical separation at Hampshire Street by Wainoni Park (removed during trial)

· Removal of footpath widening at St James School (removed during trial)

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The purpose of the Aranui Streets for People project is to implement quick, low-cost, scalable improvements that create more vibrant, people-friendly spaces in neighbourhoods. The primary aim of the Aranui Streets for People project is to encourage school students to travel to school using active transport modes.

4.2 This project has received 90% funding support from the Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Streets for People programme, with the remaining 10% funded by Council.

4.3 In November 2022, the Community Board approved (CCBCC/2023/00080) the design of the pilot scheme proposed for the intersection buildouts using bollards, speed humps, raised pedestrian crossings, and other pedestrian crossings in Aranui.

4.4 Due to the large scale of this project, which spans from Avondale Road to Pages Road and includes numerous improvements, as well as the proximity of three schools to the project area, a map has been provided below to illustrate the installed improvements.

4.5 During early engagement the project team worked with the community and Community Board to develop the project objectives and programme of works. The scope was further developed through a design jam involving three Aranui schools: Haeata Community Campus, St James School, and Chisnallwood Intermediate. In the early phase of the project, students identified the main issues for their journeys to school being a lack of provision for active transport on Aranui Streets, such as large crossing distances, wide traffic lanes, high speeds and the absence of cycle lanes and perceived CPTED issues.

Community Board timeline

4.6 The project team have reported to the Community Board and Council through the project. A summary is provided below:

Meeting date	Summary
7 August 2023	Briefing on the project objective and the next steps for the project for approvals.
6 November 2023	Seek approval on design of the pilot scheme proposed for the intersection buildouts, speed humps, speed calming, raised pedestrian crossing in Aranui. The Board did not approve the cycleway at this time, and asked staff to investigate other options. The Board recommended that Council approve the use of a Pilot Scheme to install these, which was approved by Council on 6 December 2023
11 December 2023	Other cycleway options were presented to the Community Board (unidirectional and bi-directional cycleway options). These were not approved.

4.7 Designs were presented to the Community Board during a briefing held on 7 August 2023. The Board was informed about the results of the design jam, including key findings and quick wins for the project. The Board was advised at the briefing that once the scheme plans are ready, staff will return to the Board in November for approval.

4.8 At the Community Board meeting on 6 November 2023 (Attachment B), the Board approved (CCBCC/2023/00080) the design of the pilot scheme proposed for the intersection buildouts, speed humps, speed calming, raised pedestrian crossing in Aranui, as detailed in Attachment E. The Board declined the design of the pilot scheme to implement a separated unidirectional cycleway on both sides of Breezes Road between the existing Chisnallwood Intermediate pedestrian crossing and Pages Road. The Board requested for staff to return with further refined options on the temporary cycleway option.

4.9 6 December 2023, Council declined the pilot scheme to implement a separated unidirectional cycleway and recommended staff return to the Community Board for further option on the cycleway.

4.10 11 December 2023 (Attachment C), the project team presented two options on the unidirectional and bi-directional cycleway option which was declined and no further information was requested due to the time constraint to have this project installed and trialled.

4.11 Staff were advised to return back to the Community Board in 2024 once improvements were installed and trialled.

Improvements Installed

4.12 In February 2024, the following improvements were installed as part of the trial project.

4.13 In March 2024, consultation was carried out by installing the safety improvements detailed in Attachment D. Bollards and road markings were used as they could be adapted at speed and low cost, while allowing the community to visualise the improvements. Feedback on the safety interventions was gathered during this period which included recommendations to make changes during the trial of the project. Adaptations were made, including the removal of the footpath widening along Hampshire Street by Wainoni Park, due to high-profile concerns around parking for sports and other recreational activities.

4.14 Additional improvements

During early engagement, staff identified “quick wins” that were not part of the trial but supported the objectives:

	Hampshire Street Bollards and Planter boxes	Orion Cabinet art work	Wainoni Park art work
Early feedback	· In August 2023 staff met with businesses on Hampshire Street that identified unsafe parking behaviour within the flush median. · Drivers would leave cars to visit the shops located on Hampshire Street or visit family/friends. · Customers complained about lack of visibility when crossing the road when cars were parked on the flush median. · Business perceived potential risk with ram raid.	· During early engagement and design jam kids wanted more colour and vibrant space.	· During the design jam kids worked on designs that represented the community.
Outcome	· In October 2023, the project installed 9 planter boxes outside each of businesses, along with bollards/Island separators on Hampshire Street. · Staff individually met with business owners to seek feedback on design on the planter boxes. · Each planter boxes were designed to represent business located in the area. · Chisnallwood Intermediate were involved in designing and painting of the planter boxes.	· Chisnallwood Intermediate designed and painted the Orion Cabinets around Aranui Streets in November/December.	· Project engaged Ariki Creative based in Aranui further develop designs from design jam. · Designs were approved by Whitiora who had reached out to the key stakeholders in the Community. · Road art was proposed to be installed late May.
Changes made during adaption	· During consultation feedback organised by ACTIS, we heard from submitters online and in-person that the bollards installed within the flush median felt like a prison and it was eye sore. · Adaptation : Project has sourced 6 planter boxes for the flush median that will be installed later in May.		· During consultation feedback organised by ACTIS, we heard from submitters online and in-person that the bollards installed in the parking bay outside Wainoni Park needed to be removed. Adaptation: Wainoni Park bollards were removed and the art work originally proposed in the parking bay will be installed on the footpath.

4.15 Adaptation based on consultation in March/April 2024

During March/April Consultation period adaptations were made on the intersection of Breezes Road/Hampshire Street and Shortland/Tahuna Street. The following table shows the measures were undertaken in the area to adapt.

Adaptation works	Intersection of Breezes Road and Hampshire Street Adaptation	Intersection of Shortland Street and Tahuna Street Adaptation
Feedback	· Number of submitters expressed that the narrowing of the intersection on Breezes Road and Hampshire Street was too narrow and forcing drivers to drive over the centre line which is a safety issue.	· Early March, project team met with the Operations Manager of Global Express located on Tahuna Street regarding the intersection narrowing for their container truck and trailer. · Speed humps are fine and should stay.
Monitoring	· Monitoring: Onsite observation was undertaken over couple of days to confirm customer feedback and understand driving behaviours. It was found that most drivers were staying clear of the bollards and crossing the centre line while approaching the intersection.	· Global express recommended staff understand how the large trucks carrying large containers move in and out of the intersection. · Project team met Tahuna Street stakeholders (Global express, Westco lumber limited and Heb) to monitor their largest truck movements throughout the intersection.
Adaptation	· The bollards between the speed bump and Breezes Road were moved back behind the double lanes (200 mm) to provide drivers with more space in the departure lane.	· All intersection narrowing was removed.
Outcome	· Motorists were noted to no longer be crossing the centre line and staying within their departure lane.	· All vehicles able to travel through intersection without hitting bollards. · It was noted by the safety audit team and HEB that general traffic was found to be driving by the road marking while the intersection still had the painted intersection narrowing.

4.16 The following related reports/memos/information were circulated to the members of the meeting:

Date	Subject
6 Nov 2023	Streets For People – Aranui Connection (Attachment B) Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board – Approval for the pilot scheme to implement.
11 Dec 2023	Streets For People – Aranui Connection (Attachment C) Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board – Approval for the cycleway

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

4.17 The following reasonably practicable options were considered and are assessed in this report:

· Option A – All improvements retained with intersection adaptation.

o This option retains all improvements that have been installed, using the existing materials.

· Option B - Retain speed humps and safer speed platforms only.

o This option involves removing all intersection narrowing measures, including bollards, road markings, and lane reductions.

o Retention of the safe speed humps and platforms to reduce speeds.

· Option C – Remove all safety improvements.

o Removal of all trialled interventions and returning the road corridor to before the trial had occurred.

· Option D – Speed humps and safer speed platforms and kerb buildouts.

o This option retains all speed humps and platforms.

o The intersection narrowing’s are changed from bollards to kerb buildouts, using precast concrete separators

Option Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.18 Preferred Option : Option D – Speed humps and safer speed platforms and kerb buildouts.

4.18.1 Option Description: This option retains all improvements that have been installed throughout Aranui, shown in Figure 2 to meet all project objectives.

· The intersections will be altered by removing the bollards and providing a low-cost kerb buildout instead with a larger entry radius, allowing drivers to navigate the traffic-calmed areas more easily. The new kerb buildouts will be installed within the existing road marking extents.

· This will change the alignments by 300-500mm and will be tighter than Option A. However, vehicle tracking has shown that these radii will work for larger vehicles.

· All speed humps will be retained as installed. (Attachment D,H)

4.19 Option A – All improvements retained with intersection adaptation.

4.19.1 Option Description: This option retains all improvements that have been installed and makes adaptations to the intersections based on the feedback received.

· The intersections will be adjusted by widening the entry lane into the side road by a minimum of 1 metre, where kerb alignment permits. This will provide additional width at the intersections, allowing drivers to navigate the traffic-calmed areas more easily. The bollards will be adjusted to follow the new kerb alignment and road marking updated.

· All speed humps will be retained as installed. All other safety interventions listed below will be implemented throughout Aranui. (See Attachment D)

4.20 Option B - Retain all speed humps and platforms

4.20.1 Option Description: This option involves removing all intersection narrowing measures, while retaining the safe speed humps

· This will involve removing all bollards, road markings, and lane reductions at intersections.

· Other safety interventions, such as the speed humps listed in Attachment D, will remain implemented throughout Aranui.

4.21 Option C - Remove all safety improvements

4.21.1 Option Description: Removing of all trialled interventions and returning the road corridor to before the trial had occurred.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.22 Abley Transportation Consultants undertook the monitoring and evaluation of the trial. This measured the outcomes and effectiveness of interventions that were implemented. The monitoring and evaluation report is Attachment A and was a requirement of the Streets for People funding.

4.23 The recommended Option D ranks the lowest (lower is better) in the multi-criteria analysis (MCA) due to its alignment with the project outcomes of increasing active travel in the Aranui area. The safety interventions within Option D are expected to facilitate an increase in active transport by improving the level of service at all crossing locations and reducing speeds in the area. (Figure 3 : Multi criteria analysis) (Attachment I)

4.24 The criteria descriptions and assigned weightings, can be found in Attachment A Page 14,16.

Figure 3 : Multi criteria analysis

4.25 Option D, which involves retaining all the safety improvements installed as part of the trial, has not yet been assessed by an independent safety audit team.

4.25.1 A design Safety Audit is planned to be complete in time to inform the decision of the Community Board.

4.25.2 However, Option D does not involve significant changes from Option A which has been safety audited during the scheme's detailed design and post-construction stages, with no significant concerns raised.

4.25.3 The implementation of primary safe system interventions, such as raised safety platforms and speed humps, has ensured that the project has no outstanding major safety concerns for both the safety audit team and the Transport Operations team.

4.25.4 Without these raised safety platforms and speed humps, there would be significant safety concerns at the crossing locations due to the high speeds recorded throughout Aranui. This was confirmed by the speed counts collected prior to the improvements being installed. (Attachment A Page 14)

4.26 The four options have been compared as part of the project based on several criteria: speed reduction, increase in active travel, reduction of crossing distance at intersections for vulnerable users, alignment of interventions with the rest of the city, ongoing costs, and community feedback regarding speed humps, intersection narrowing, and mode shift.

Speed data

Figure 4 Comparison of before and after. Attachment A Page 14

4.27 Speed counts have been conducted at nine sites around Aranui, within the project area both before and during the trial period. The reduction in speed has been calculated at all these locations, resulting in an average reduction of 8.63% across all sites. The lower speeds are expected to be maintained with both Option A and D. Speeds are likely to increase through Option B and C.

4.28 Speed counts were not undertaken at the locations of the school crossings. However, the installation of safer speed platforms at these crossings is expected to have reduced speeds beyond those previously recorded. This reduction further decreases the likelihood of death and serious injury for vulnerable users.

4.29 Speeds recorded on Wainoni Road, Aldershot Street and Pages Road have seen either an increase in speed or a small reduction in speed compared to the rest of the project area. These corridors have no infrastructure improvements as part of this project and are outside of the project area. These tube counts were captured because it is important to understand the traffic flow on these corridors to understand the impact of changes within the Aranui area.

4.30 Parking demand and duration at the Hampshire Street Shops has remained consistent.

4.30.1 There is no observed change to the high turnover, with most vehicles parking for less than 5 minutes.

4.30.2 The bollards in the flush median have eliminated the illegal parking issue that was identified before the trial. This has provided a safe waiting space for pedestrians crossing the road.

4.30.3 Before the trial, very few school children were recorded cycling on Breezes Road. Attachment A, Page 18 of the monitoring and evaluation report demonstrates an increase in footpath cycling on Breezes Road and other modes of travel in the area.

4.31 The Hampshire Street speed counts recorded an average speed of 52.9 km/h before the trial, a reduction 40.5 km/h was recorded post construction. If a crash was to occur with either a pedestrian or cyclists, the 12.4km/h speed reduction decreases the likelihood of death occurring by over 50%.

4.32 Notably, Counter 2 on Wainoni Road showed an increase in speed due to the absence of any infrastructure improvements in that section. The enhancements listed in Attachment D help to increase the liveability and use of active modes within the area by providing a better street environment (Attachment A, Page 14).

	Before Speed (June 2023) km/h	During Speed (March 2024) km/h	Reduction in speed improvements km/h

Counter 8 (Rowan Avenue)	52.1	48.75	3.35
Counter 9 (Pages Road)	54.6	54.1	0.5

Crash Data

4.33 Crash data within the project area is recorded in the Waka Kotahi CAS (Crash Analysis System). Data taken after the project indicated no crash incidents. This absence of data is anticipated, due to the length of the trial, and as crashes have a processing time before appearing on the database of up to 12 weeks.

4.34 As part of the New Zealand Police submission, which supported all safety interventions, they provided their road policing call-out log from December through March. We have now received the data for April, which shows a continued reduction in street/drag racing call-outs in the area Attachment F.

Changes in behaviour

4.35 An increase in active travel has been identified at Haeata Community Campus.

4.35.1 Throughout the trial period, an increase of 14% of children travelling on bicycles, scooters and on the bus, as shown by the comparison of school travel data diagram below (See Attachment A Page 18).

4.35.2

Option A and D are expected to support these journeys and a continued increase in active travel. Option B and Option C are less likely to maintain the increases in active transport as measures are being reduced. Option C is expected to return to numbers before the trial.

Key findings from monitoring and evaluation

4.36 As presented in Attachment A by Abley Consultants:

· The preliminary data shows that the project has positive outcomes for key transport trends.

· Lower vehicle speeds at seven out of nine count locations, including outside the three schools.

· A significant 12 km/h drop in vehicle speed outside the Hampshire Street Shops.

· Operating speeds at three locations are now below the posted speed limit.

· Data shows a 14% increase in active travel use at Haeata Community Campus.

· More students want to change their travel habits and use active modes to get to Haeata Community Campus.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 There is a risk that if the decision is made to remove all safety improvements (Option C), it could negatively impact the safety of all road users, reduce the ability for children to travel safely to school, and increase the number of police callouts due to drag racing.

6.2 As per the agreement with NZTA Waka Kotahi, funding for the project is scheduled to conclude on June 30 2024. If a decision is not made during the meeting on 10 June 2024 it will affect the project completion date and the NZTA component of the funding will be at risk. This could result in an increased cost to Council to cover the NZTA portion of the costs.

6.3 There is a risk that if Option C is selected which has a higher cost associated with removal; additional funding will be required and need to be sourced to facilitate the removal process. This option has a shortfall of $759,917.24 which will need to sourced if the Board approves to remove all improvements.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

6.4 Statutory and/or delegated authority to undertake proposals in the report:

6.5 Part 1, Clauses 7 and 8 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 provides Council with the authority to install parking restrictions by resolution.

6.6 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 stopping restrictions and traffic control devices.

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

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.8 The required decision:

6.8.1 Aligns with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework. Providing safe crossing points for people who walk, cycle and bus will contribute to a green, liveable city, where our neighbourhoods and communities are accessible and well-connected.

6.8.2 Is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by completing a Significance and Engagement Assessment.

6.8.3 Is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.

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

6.10 Transport

6.10.1 Activity: Transport

· Level of Service: 10.0.2 Increase the share of non-car modes in daily trips - >=37% of trips undertaken by non-car modes

· Level of Service: 10.0.6.1 Reduce the number of death and serious injury crashes on the local road network - <=96 crashes

· Level of Service: 10.5.42 Increase the infrastructure provision for active and public modes - >= 600 kilometres (total combined length)

· Level of Service: 16.0.10 Maintain the perception that Christchurch is a walking friendly city - >=85% resident satisfaction

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

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

6.11.1 Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board

6.12 Early engagement ran from late 2022 until the trial commenced in March 2024. Results were reported to the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board to inform their decision on whether to proceed with the trial.

6.13 Following the decision to proceed, staff attended the Aranui Partners Meeting (with Aranui Community Trust Incorporated Society (ACTIS), Police, Salvation Army, Kainga Ora, school principals, Aranui Library) and met separately with Haeata Community Campus, Chisnallwood Intermediate School, and St James School, to confirm the trial plans and next steps. All schools were supportive of the temporary changes. The upcoming trial was also socialised at AFFIRM – Aranui Festival, and at an Eastern Eagles league game.

6.14 Public consultation was planned to start once the trial was in place and the community had the opportunity to fully experience the new road layout to inform their feedback. However, it became apparent that people wanted to provide feedback prior to construction being completed so the Kōrero mai Let’s Talk webpage and feedback form was ‘soft-launched’ – promoted through elected members, ACTIS, the schools, and on social media.

6.15 Consultation officially started on 18 March and ran until 15 April 2024. An email was sent to around 130 key stakeholders, including emergency services, businesses and organisations operating within Aranui, and residents who provided feedback during early engagement. Businesses and organisations were provided with posters advertising the trial, and corflute signs were placed in 15 locations adjacent to upgrades. A Newsline story inviting people to check out the trial and provide feedback was posted, and shared to Council social media. Paid advertising promoted the trial and consultation both online (Facebook, Instagram and Google Display) and on the digital billboard at the corner of Pages and Breezes roads.

6.16 Consultation documents were delivered to around 3,000 households in the project area, inviting feedback online or via a paper-copy submission form.

6.17 ACTIS hosted a ‘humps and bollards have your say day’ on 14 March. Around 200 people provided feedback on some of the temporary changes. The feedback was less supportive than that received through Council channels and has been reported on within the submission analysis attachment. Scans of the physical submissions are available on the Kōrero mai page.

6.18 Throughout the trial period, staff door-knocked 65 households in the project area.

6.18.1 Most households spoken to were positive about the speed humps and their intention to slow traffic. Some suggested that they should be higher, with others saying that they would be more effective further away from intersections, as vehicles are slowing down around intersections anyway.

6.18.2 Most households spoken to were fine with the intersection treatments but thought that they could be made a bit wider as it’s too narrow for larger vehicles to navigate without crossing centrelines. Fewer households were either against the narrowing altogether, or supportive of the intersection upgrades in their entirety.

6.18.3 Other common discussion points included positivity around the removal of the Wainoni Park bollards, requests for more speed humps – particularly further down Hampshire Street and on Eureka and Aldershot Streets, requests for more signage around speed humps (particularly on the Avondale end of Breezes Road), and that there is a speed hump too close to the Avondale Road bend.

6.19 Aranui Library, Chisnallwood Intermediate, St James School and Crossroads Youth hosted token exercises throughout the trial. Here, users of these organisations were asked simplified versions of the consultation questions.

6.20 On 3 April 2024, staff worked with Mai FM to host a barbeque at Haeata Community Campus to capture parents that weren’t being reached through the token tool. 15 groups of students and parents spoke to staff. Feedback received at this day was slightly more positive than overall consultation results, with general agreement that the streets feel safer because of the trial. Critiques related to the look of the flexi-posts and confusion as to their purpose.

6.21 Following feedback received during the trial and by working directly with impacted stakeholders, the intersection upgrades at Tahuna/Shortland and Hampshire/Breezes were altered, and the footpath widening at Wainoni Park was removed.

Summary of Submissions Ngā Tāpaetanga

6.22 Submissions were made by five recognised organisations, one business and 205 individuals. All submissions are available on the Kōrero mai page.

6.23 Across all streets, the majority of submitters said that they were in favour of safe speed humps.

6.1 Intersection upgrades received mixed feedback – some locations were more supported than others.

6.2 The most common feedback about the trial in general included:

6.2.1 The bollards make the intersections too narrow – dangerous, force drivers to cross the centre line (56)

6.2.2 The changes address the concerns residents have around speeding (32)

6.2.3 The intersection treatments should be humps only – no narrowing (26)

3.7 Governance Advice

3.7.1 Prestons Park Drive – Proposed Bus Stop

At its meeting on 11 March 2024, the Board received a public forum presentation from Pauline Neale in relation to a proposed bus stop on Prestons Park Drive. The Board decided to refer the issues raised to staff for investigation and response.

Below for your information, is the response from staff:

Environment Canterbury (ECan):

· ECan, CCC and partners are working on delivery of the PT futures investment programme approved by all partners in 2020. As you will be aware the short-term programme focuses on the delivery of improvements to the core network and the direct services to the main urban centres in Waimakariri and Selwyn.

· Service improvements to the network are funded through rates agreed through the long-term plan (2024-34) and central government funding through the national land transport programme (NLTP 2024-27).

· All other improvements and changes to the network, outside of the core routes, such as changes to bus routes around Preston’s Park Drive, will need to be considered through the Rest of Network Detailed Business case which will undertake a full network review (outside the core routes). This process will include consultation and engagement with communities and interested parties, including working closely with partners.

· ECan is currently seeking feedback on our long-term Plan 2024-34 Consultation document. The recommended option 1 includes the following:

o Delivery of all PT Futures network improvements over the next 7 years which includes:

§ making all core routes ten-minute frequencies or better by 2028. Resulting in average wait times of 5 mins. Route 7 is the next frequency uplift planned for 2025.

§ additional direct services to the key centres in Waimakariri and Selwyn starting in Year 31

§ a review of the connector and local services through a business case to be completed by mid-2026 and implementing the improvements identified through the business case by 2031, improving the level of service across the whole network.

· We are not able to confirm the timing of the rest of network business case until we have clarity on funding through the LTP and NLTP funding bids. We expect to have confirmation early September 2024, so we will be in a better position to advise on timelines.

· PT futures is a joint programme which is being jointly delivered by all Greater Christchurch partners, staff are actively working on delivery of the approved investment programme. The development of the Rest of Network detailed business case will involve staff from across all partners to ensure service improvements are supported by infrastructure improvements to achieve the maximum benefit.

Christchurch City Council (CCC):

· If the extension were to proceed, CCC, as the organization responsible for public transport infrastructure, would undertake efforts to establish new bus stops.

· The CCC's work on new bus stops will involve public consultation, providing affected residents with the opportunity to submit their feedback.

· Affected residents will also have the opportunity to participate in Community Board meetings, during which the CCC will present proposed bus stops for approval and residents can share their perspectives with board members.

3.7.2 Rawhiti Domain – Toilet Access

At its meeting on 21 November 2022, the Board received a public forum presentation from Soozie Bragg and Vivienne Fitgerald in relation to toilet access in the vicinity of the woodland garden area at Rawhiti Domain. The Board decided to refer the issues raised to staff for investigation and report back to the Board by way of InfoCouncil report or Memorandum.

Attached for the Board’s information is a staff memorandum reporting back to the Board (refer Attachment C).

3.7.3 Alpine View Lane and Waitikiri Drive – traffic and speed concerns

As its meeting on 11 December 2023, the Board received correspondence from Nikki Duffield and Anne Curry in relation to traffic and speed concerns on Alpine View Lane and Waitikiri Drive. The Board decided to refer the issues raised to staff for investigation and response back to the Board. Staff have provided the following response:

There has been extensive development in the wider area surrounding Alpine View Lane and Waitikiri Drive in recent years, likely leading to a noticeable increase in the volume of traffic.

Staff understand this is frustrating for residents however, this issue is not unique to this location and as the City has grown, we have noticed an increase in traffic volume in many (expanding) areas.

Funding for traffic calming measures such as speed humps falls within our Minor Road Safety and Minor Safety Interventions programme budgets, which we are required to allocate to safety improvements at the worst sites/intersections for reported death and serious injury crashes.

We receive a number of these requests, and due to the availability of limited funding, locations with historically a higher number of injury crashes or higher crash risk are prioritised.

We have checked the latest data for Alpine View Lane and Waitikiri Drive:

- There have been no crashes on Alpine View Lane within the last ten years and four, non-injury crashes along the entire length of Waitikiri Drive.

- A traffic count was requested and carried out (in February, 2024) for both Alpine View Lane and Waitikiri Drive (information can be found at https://ccc.govt.nz/transport/improving-our-transport-and-roads/traffic-count-data/links-traffic-counts-dashboard/).

The data shows the average speed of vehicles on Alpine Lane is 37.7km/hr with 85% of vehicles travelling below 46.3km/hr.

The average speed on Waitikiri Drive is 43.3km/hr with 85% of vehicles travelling below 49.7km/hr.

Both Streets were considered for a speed limit reduction (to 40km/hr) as part of the safer speed plan however, this has been paused by Council as we await Government direction on a new Speed Setting Rule. The speed limit on both streets therefore remains at 50km/hr.

The recent count data suggests vehicles are complying with the current limit.

At this time, we are unable to investigate traffic calming measures for Alpine View Lane as this street isn’t identified as a high- risk area.

On street parking however, acts as a form of traffic calming as it gives the illusion of a narrower street and therefore encourages people to travel at lower speeds.

Nikki mentioned that people are parking too close to pedestrian cutdowns causing reduced visibility for motorists and pedestrians.

This illegal parking can be reported to our parking enforcement team (a search of the parking compliance database shows there have been no tickets issued on Alpine View Lane within the last five years).

Speeding or antisocial road users are best targeted through Police enforcement. We encourage members of the public to report or continue to report these drivers to the Police when it happens. This can be done by phoning 105, phoning *555 from a cell phone, or going online to www.105.police.govt.nz or to https://www.police.govt.nz/advice/driving-and-road-safety/report-road-incident-unsafe-driver. It would aid the Police that customers collect data on the day, time and possibly the registration numbers of cars before lodging a report.
