A touch of frost, a promise of a glorious day.

Board Consideration

Council Officers joined the table to speak to the attached presentation and answer the Board’s questions. Council Officers had also provided the attached responses to the Board’s pre-meeting questions.

The Board considered the submissions and deputations (Items 5.1 - 5.15) on the three options consulted on for the peak-hour lane on Cranford Street, between Innes Road and Berwick Street, before exercising its delegation to not accept the officer-recommended peak-hour clearway option and decide in favour of recommending the peak-hour lane remain a bus lane.

The Board accepted the officer recommendations in respect of the improvements to the road that were proposed across all options for the peak hour lane. It also added resolutions, by a separate unanimous vote, to:

·     Request staff report back to the Board on safety/pedestrian fencing or other measures at the Westminster Street/Cranford Street and Berwick Street/Cranford Street intersections.

·     Request staff to take necessary steps toward prioritising the implementation of the school speed zone at St Albans School.

·     Note that signage for the bus lane needs improvement and enforcement needs resourcing.

1.   Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report for the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board to approve the installation of two mobility car parks at Lancaster Park on Stevens Street.

1.2       The report has been written in response to requests from the Lancaster Park Project Control Group members for mobility parks to be provided in the vicinity of Lancaster Park. This will improve access to the park and future public facilities, including public toilets.

1.3       The recommended option is to install two mobility car parks on Stevens Street in accordance with Attachment A.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board:

1.        Receives the information in the Proposed Mobility Parking - Lancaster Park, Stevens Street 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.        Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflicts with the parking or stopping restrictions described in resolutions 4 below.

4.        Approves that, accordance with Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, that the parking of vehicles be reserved for vehicles with an approved mobility parking permit, prominently displayed in the vehicle, on the south side of Stevens Street, in accordance with Attachment A (Stevens Street – Lancaster Park, Proposed Mobility Parking, TG148396, Issue 2, dated 5/11/2024). This restriction is to apply at all times.

5.        Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1       Members of the Lancaster Park Project Control Group have raised concerns about the lack of mobility car parks around Lancaster Park which could inhibit members of the public engaging with the park and the public facilities planned at the site. Currently there are no reserved mobility parking spaces located at the Park.

3.2       The proposal includes installing two new mobility car parks on the south side of Stevens Street where there are already cutdowns in the kerb.

3.3       The mobility car parks are marked in a location that is close to the planned Lancaster Park Community Centre (which will have external public toilets) and Change Rooms, as well as being near the War Memorial located at the site.

3.4       The recommended option is to install two mobility car parks at the proposed location, in accordance with Attachment A.

 

4.   Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1       There is currently unmarked, unrestricted parking available around Lancaster Park along Stevens Street and limited parking available on Wilsons Road North. This parking is expected to be fully optimised once the Lancaster Park facilities are built, supporting local games such as cricket, rugby and football.

4.2       The two proposed car parks are marked as parallel to the kerb and will each be seven metres long with clearance behind to accommodate larger vehicles.

4.3       The proposal is consistent with the Council’s Suburban Parking Policy which prioritises mobility parking over other short stay, resident, or commuter parking.

4.4       Approval is required by the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board.

4.5       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing and prioritisation beyond the Council’s control).

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.6.1   Installation of two mobility car parks on the south side of Stevens Street along the edge of Lancaster Park as shown on Attachment A.

4.7       The following options were considered but ruled out:

4.7.1   Mobility parking on Wilson Street North. Car parks in this location would have greater implementation costs as kerbs need to be cut and has greater safety risks as the mobility car parks will need to be managed alongside bus routes and bike lanes.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.8       Preferred Option: Install two mobility car parks in accordance with Attachment A.

4.8.1   Option Description: Install two designated mobility car parks on Stevens Street in accordance with Attachment A.

4.8.2   Option Advantages

·      This proposal is intended to provide safe and accessible parking options near public facilities for those holding a mobility parking permit.

4.8.3   Option Disadvantages

·      The overall loss of three unrestricted, on-street car parks.

·      Cost to implement.

4.9       Alternative Option: Do Nothing.

4.9.1   Option Description: Leave the parking as it is currently.

4.9.2   Option Advantages

·      This option will retain the two unrestricted car parks for all public compared to the recommended option.

·      No cost to the Council.

4.9.3   Option Disadvantages

·      This does not address the access of safety concerns for mobility card holders who are required to use standard car parks that might not provide enough clearance or kerb cut downs to allow safe transition onto the footpath.

·      Inconsistent with the Council's Suburban Parking Policy which prioritises mobility parking over other short stay resident, or commuter parking.

6.4       The required decision:

6.4.1   Aligns with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework.

6.4.2   Is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.  This level of significance was determined by the low level of impact and low number of people affected by the recommended decision.

6.4.3   Is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies; the Christchurch Suburban Parking Policy.

6.5       This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2024 - 2034):

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.7       The Lancaster Park PCG met to discuss the proposal. Members of this group were supportive of the proposal and agreed with the need for mobility car parks in this area.

6.8       A letter for the proposal was issued to the effected neighbouring properties. At the time of writing this report, no further comments were received.

6.9       The do-nothing option is inconsistent with the request to improve the provision of mobility parks in this area.

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

6.10.1 Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board.

 

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

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

6.12    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

6.15    The proposals in this report are unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation to the impacts of climate change or emissions reductions.

6.16    This proposal is principally about safety and accessibility. Due to the minor nature of the works, is not expected to have any impact on climate change.

7.   Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

Brent Smith, Acting General Manager City Infrastructure

  

1.   Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board to consider approval of P120 time restricted parking spaces on Bishop Street between Bealey Avenue and Purchas Street.

1.2       This report has been written in response to a request from a local resident to provide short term parking options on Bishop Street.

1.3       The recommended option is to provide the P120 time restricted spaces as shown on Attachment A.

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board:

1.        Receives the information in the Bishop Street - Proposed Parking Restrictions 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.        Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the parking or stopping restrictions described in resolution 4 below.

4.        Approves that, in accordance with Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, the parking of all vehicles be restricted to a maximum period of 120 minutes on the eastern side of Bishop Street, commencing at a point 30.5 metres north of its intersection with Bealey Avenue and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 101 metres as shown on Attachment A, plan TG148370, Issue 2, dated 23/10/2024. The restriction is to apply Monday to Friday.

5.        Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1       A resident has requested that timed parking be provided on the section of Bishop Street between Bealey Avenue and Purchas Street. This is to discourage all day-commuter parking, encourage turnover and provide space for both residents and visitors for shorter periods throughout the day.

3.2       Due to the high parking demands in this area these spaces are often occupied by long term parking.

3.3       The recommended option is to install the P120 time restricted parking spaces as shown on Attachment A.

4.   Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1       Bishop Street is a two-way local street and currently parking is unrestricted.

4.2       This section of Bishop Street is just to the north of Bealey Avenue. This is a suburban area where there is an increasing and high demand for parking from residents, businesses and commuters, which can make it difficult to find a park and puts pressure on the available road space.

4.3       Christchurch City Council’s Suburban Parking Policy provides criteria to assess areas of high parking demand. High demand is defined as areas where occupancy of on-street parking regularly exceeds 75%. For residential zones, the policy states that time restrictions can be applied to sections of the street (approximately 25% – 50%). This approach should be used when the parking problems are limited to a few streets and most of the properties have off-street parking.

4.4       Staff have carried out four site visits to assess the parking occupancy at varying times of the day. All four visits showed the parking occupancy to exceed the 75% threshold noted above.

4.5       There are approximately 47 unrestricted parking spaces on the section of Bishop Street between Bealey Avenue and Purchas Street. We are proposing to time restrict 11 spaces to two hours, Monday to Friday, as shown on Attachment A. This approach is consistent with the Suburban Parking Policy recommended criteria.

4.6       Several units are currently under construction on three land parcels on the opposite side to the road to where we are proposing to install P120 parking. These units are all being provided with off-street parking, however, these are likely to increase the number of vehicles parking in the immediate vicinity.

4.7       Timed parking restrictions are enforceable between 8am and 6pm, and we are proposing to further restrict these spaces to Monday to Friday only. These spaces will therefore be available for unrestricted parking out of these hours i.e. between 4pm and 10am when considering the allowable two hours and on weekdays and at all times on weekends.

4.8       Council is also currently working on a Residents Exemption Policy where the opportunity will become available for residents to apply for an exemption to timed parking restrictions. However, we do not currently have a date that this will be completed.

4.9       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing and prioritisation beyond Council’s control)

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

4.10.1    Install P120 time restricted parking as shown on Attachment A.

4.10.2    Do nothing.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.11    Preferred Option: Install P120 time restricted parking as shown on Attachment A.

4.11.1 Option Advantages

·      Addresses the request to provide time restricted parking to enable a higher turnover of available on-street parking.

·      Provides a consistent approach to parking management and complies with the recommendations in the Central City Parking Policy.

4.11.2 Option Disadvantages

·      Replaces approximately eleven unrestricted parking spaces.

·      Cost to implement.

4.12    Alternative Option: - Do nothing

4.12.1 Option Advantages

·      Retains eleven unrestricted parking spaces.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.7       The initial request for Staff to investigate timed parking restrictions was initiated by a resident.

6.8       Our proposal was sent to the residents and property owners on both sides of the section of Bishop Street where we are proposing the restrictions.

6.9       We received ten responses to the proposal; five in support, four opposed and one stating they were not affected either way however felt the restrictions were unfair on those who needed on-street parking.

6.10    The main points from those in support:

·        that commuter parking was reducing the ability for residents to park on the street during the week.

·        that it was difficult for visitors to find a parking space during these times.

·        that they agreed in general with the proposal but thought a P180 would work better. Council does not use three hour time restrictions as these are harder to enforce.

6.11    The main points from those opposed were:

·        that the proposals would reduce parking space for residents and put pressure on existing spaces, especially when the townhouses being constructed are completed.

·        that the street was too far out of town and away from commercial areas to warrant the time restriction.

·        that parking exemption permits should be made available for residents.

·        that we should apply smaller areas of time restrictions along the whole street. Parking enforcement prefer parking restrictions to be in blocks as they are easier to enforce. Having them in blocks also reduces the number of signs and markings that are required.

 

6.12    The recommended option is to provide the P120, Monday to Friday, time restricted parking spaces as shown on Attachment A.

6.13    The Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.

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

·   Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.15    The decision does not involve a significant decision concerning 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.

6.16    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

6.16    The proposals in this report are unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation to the impacts of climate change or emissions reductions.

6.17    This is a minor proposal that is principally intended to address parking space availability in this location. Due to the minor nature of the works, it is not intended to have any impact on climate change.

7.   Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

1.   Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board to approve our recommendation to improve access along Virgil Place.  This report has been written following concerns that have been raised by residents about the function of the street due to its very narrow width.

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.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board:

3.        Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the parking or stopping restrictions described in resolutions 4a to 4d below.

4.        Approves pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 that:

a.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the south-eastern side of Morrison Avenue commencing at its intersection with Virgil Place and extending in south-westerly direction for a distance of six metres as shown on Plan 1176707, dated 10/10/2024 as shown on Attachment A.

b.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the south-western side of Virgil Place commencing at its intersection with Morrison Avenue and extending in south-easterly direction for a distance of 87 metres as shown on Plan 1176707, dated 10/10/2024 as shown on Attachment A.

c.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the south-eastern side of Morrison Avenue commencing at its intersection with Virgil Place and extending in north-easterly direction for a distance of 12 metres as shown on Plan 1176707, dated 10/10/2024 as shown on Attachment A.

5.        Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1       Virgil Place is a narrow, two-way, no exit residential street. We have received two safety related service requests from residents stating that through access along Virgil Place is being regularly compromised when there are vehicles parked on both sides of the road. The current parking arrangement is also affecting access to a number of private driveways. 

3.2       Implementing the No Stopping restriction recommendation will improve road safety by allowing unimpeded emergency access and driveway access for residents.

3.3       The preferred option is to install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A.

4.   Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1       Virgil Place is approximately 5.5 metres wide. There are currently no parking restrictions approved on the street.

4.2       The issue with through access has been brought to Council’s attention by residents of Virgil Place. Delivery vehicles have been unable to access the street at times and their main concern is that emergency vehicles would be unable to get through the street in response to an emergency callout.

4.3       The Council's resource recovery department have confirmed that they have difficulties accessing the street on refuse collection days if vehicles are parked on both sides of the street.

4.4       The Christchurch Suburban Parking Policy (2019) Policy 10 provides guidance for reviewing the allocation of parking in circumstances where the street is less than seven metres wide and there are recognised parking issues If the carriageway of a street is less than 7 metres in width and there are known access problems (i.e. there are limited places for vehicles to pass and/or emergency access may be compromised), Council will propose to remove parking on one side of the street.” There are also issues with people sometimes parking on the footpath of these narrow streets, degrading pedestrian accessibility, safety and amenity of the street.

4.5       Considering this guidance, we are proposing to install a No Stopping restriction along the south side of Virgil Place.

4.6       The proposal removes approximately 11 parking spaces from the south side of the street, however as the street is so narrow vehicles cannot realistically park here without blocking through access.

4.7       There have been no reported crashes on Virgil Place in the last five years.  This street has no risk classification under the Council’s high risk intersection mapping system.

4.8       Approval is required by the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board.

4.9       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing and prioritisation beyond the Council’s control).

5.   Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

7.4.1   Align with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework.

7.4.2   The recommendations in this report are consistent with the Suburban Parking Policy.

7.4.3   The decisions in this report are assessed as low significance based on 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.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

7.7       Eighteen residents and four property owners were advised of the proposals by letter.

7.8       We received five responses; four in support and one against, who did not want to lose the parking outside their property.

We initially proposed to extend the parking restriction around the turning head. The resident against the proposals lives within this area.

After checking the turning movements, we concluded that removing the parking restriction from this location would not affect access and there is room for a refuse truck to turnaround. We have therefore been able to retain the parking outside this resident’s property.

The recommended option was sent back to submitters for their comments. We received positive feedback from two residents.

7.9       The Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

7.10    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.

7.11    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

7.12    The proposals in this report are unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation to the impacts of climate change or emissions reductions.

7.13    This is a minor proposal that is principally intended to address safety issues at these locations. Due to the minor nature of the works, it is not expected to have any impact on climate change.

1.   Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       For the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board to approve the installation of No Stopping restrictions at the Beeston Place / Freebairn Street intersection.

1.2       This report has been written in response to a customer service request to investigate the installation of No Stopping restrictions to improve congestion and visibility at the Beeston Place / Freebairn Street intersection.

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

1.4       The Preferred Option is to install No Stopping restrictions as shown on Attachment A.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board:

1.        Receives the information in the Beeston Place / Freebairn Street Intersection - Proposed No Stopping Restrictions 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.        Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the parking or stopping restrictions described in resolutions 4a to 4d below.

4.        Approves pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 that:

a.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the north side of Beeston Place commencing at its intersection with Freebairn Street, and extending in a westerly direction for a distance of nine metres as shown on plan H04736158, dated 21/10/2024, refer Attachment A.

b.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the west side of Freebairn Street commencing at its intersection with Beeston Place, and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 16 metres as shown on plan H04736158, dated 21/10/2024, refer Attachment A.

c.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the south side of Beeston Place commencing at its intersection with Freebairn Street, and extending in a westerly direction for a distance of nine metres as shown on plan H04736158, dated 21/10/2024, refer Attachment A.

d.        the stopping of all vehicles be prohibited at all times on the west side of Freebairn Street commencing at its intersection with Beeston Place, and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 15 metres as shown on plan H04736158, dated 21/10/2024, refer Attachment A.

5.        Approves that these resolutions take effect when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1       Safety concerns have been raised about on-street parking restricting visibility at the Beeston Place / Freebairn Street intersection, particularly at school drop off and pick up times.

3.2       Staff have investigated and agree with the safety concerns raised. Vehicles are parking up to the intersection and occasionally right on the corner. The No Stopping restriction proposal will reinforce that this is an area where it is illegal to park, helping to reduce congestion and provide better visibility at the intersection.

3.3       This report presents the Preferred Option to address the issues raised, which is to install No Stopping restrictions as shown on Attachment A.

4.   Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1       Both Beeston Place and Freebairn Street are classified as Local Roads in the Council’s Road Classification System. These roads function almost entirely for access purposes and are not intended to act as through routes.

4.2       Beeston Place and Freebairn Street are nine metre wide, two-way streets and Beeston Place is a cul-de-sac. They are primarily fronted by residential properties and there are moderate residential parking demands in the area.

4.3       Redwood School have a pedestrian walkway onto Freebairn Street located 30 metres south of the intersection with Beeston Place. Parents are parking in the vicinity at pick up and drop off times, too close to the intersection and on occasion right on the corner of the Beeston Place / Freebairn Street intersection. This is affecting visibility and blocking the pedestrian cut-downs.

4.4       The Land Transport (Road User) Rule 2004, Section 6.3, Parking close to corners, bends etc. states:

“A driver must not stop, stand, or park a vehicle on any part of a road, whether attended or unattended, within an intersection or within 6 m of an intersection unless the stopping, standing, or parking is authorised by signs or markings maintained by the road controlling authority.”

4.5       Vehicles parking too close to or within an intersection is a situation that would normally be managed by the Council’s parking compliance team. They have not received any recent call-outs to this location however as the issue is only over two short periods of time during the day then they are unlikely to be able to react to a call-out in time.

4.6       Redwood School have highlighted the issue numerous times in communications with parents however the illegal parking has continued.

4.7       The recommended proposal is to install a No Stopping restriction as shown on Attachment A to reinforce that this is a location where it is illegal to park. This will improve congestion and visibility at pick up and drop off times and reinforce good parking behaviour.

4.8       There have been no reported crashes at this location in the last five years. However, this proposal aims to reduce the risk of there being an incident associated with the school.

4.9       The recommended length of No Stopping proposed at the intersection achieves Minimum Gap Sight Distance of 55 metres (ref. Austroads, Guide to Road Design Part 4a: Unsignalised and Signalised Intersections, 2023).

This is considered to be appropriate for this location considering the slow speed environment,  and that there is no pattern of crashes or permanent obstructions that affect visibility.

4.10    The proposal will remove approximately two unrestricted parking spaces on Freebairn Street.

4.11    If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing and prioritisation beyond Council’s control).

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.7       Two property owners were advised of the initial proposals by letter.

6.8       We received one response to our initial proposal. The resident was unhappy about losing parking outside their property and asked that we reduce the proposed no stopping to allow for more parking spaces. We were able to accommodate this request on Beeston Place by reducing the no stopping to allow for a parking space on either side of the street. The length of no stopping on Freebairn Street is the minimum we are required to provide to meet the Minimum Gap Sight Distance noted in Section 4.8 of this report. We therefore have not changed the no stopping distance on Freebairn Street from the original proposal.

6.9       The Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.

Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:

Brent Smith, Acting General Manager City Infrastructure

 

 

1.   Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board to approve the proposed road safety improvements at the Westminster Street and Rutland Street intersection. This will involve constructing a permanent concrete median island to replace the existing rubber median island, as shown on Attachment A.

1.2       The recommended option is to provide the replacement traffic island in accordance with Attachment A.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board:

1.        Receives the information in the Rutland Street / Westminster Street Intersection - Proposed Replacement Traffic Island 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 concrete median island on Rutland Street at its intersection with Westminster Street, and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 18 metres, as detailed on Plan TG146845 dated 27/09/2024, and attached to this report as Attachment A.

4.        Approves that these resolutions take effect when the measures described in this staff report are in place.

 

3.   Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1       Concerns relating to the existing traffic island on Rutland Street have been raised by several members of the public and the Community Board.

3.2       The rubber central divider with plastic delineator posts was installed on Rutland Street at the intersection with Westminster Street. This was retrofitted to reinforce a right turn ban on Rutland Street.

3.3       The divider has not proven to be robust enough to deter this movement and it is not cost-effective to continually replace the plastic posts.

3.4       Council is proposing to replace the rubber divider with a concrete island, as shown on Attachment A.

 

4.   Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1       A left-in and left-out arrangement (prohibiting right turns) was implemented when the Papanui Parallel Major Cycle Route was constructed to protect cyclists, especially considering the proximity to the St Albans Street intersection and traffic queueing on Rutland Street. A central divider, consisting of a rubber base with plastic delineator posts,  was subsequently installed due to this right turn ban being regularly ignored.

4.2       At the time of design, the rubber median was considered a cost-effective way of physically reinforcing the right turn ban.

4.3       The plastic posts are being continually driven over and are themselves becoming a safety hazard when left in the cycleway/road. The Transport Unit’s Maintenance Team have advised that they do not see continually replacing them as a cost-effective, ongoing solution.

4.4       The works are therefore needed to improve road safety. A permanent, robust concrete median island to reinforce the existing restrictions on turning movements (left-in/left-out movements only on Westminster approach) at the intersection is proposed.  These turning restrictions are in place for the safety of cyclists using the Papanui Parallel cycleway on Rutland Street.

4.5       The concrete island will replace the existing rubber median island which is in a poor state of repair.  A plan of the works is provided as Attachment A.

 

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.6.1   Replace the existing rubber divider with a concrete median island.

4.6.2   Do nothing.

4.7       Preferred Option: Install a concrete median island.

4.7.1   Option Description: Install a concrete median island to reinforce the existing restrictions on turning movements.

4.7.2   Option Advantages

·      Provides a more permanent, robust solution to reinforce the no right turn in this location.

·      Addresses concerns raised by the community relating to the road safety issues the current rubber median is causing.

·      Reduces the current, ongoing maintenance costs associated with the existing rubber median.

4.7.3   Option Disadvantages

·      Cost to implement.

4.8       Option Description: Do nothing.

4.8.1   Option Advantages

·      No costs to implement.

4.8.2   Option Disadvantages

·      Does not provide a more permanent, robust solution to reinforce the no right turn ban in this location.

·      Does not address concerns raised by the community relating to the road safety issues the current rubber median is causing.

3.5.2   Council Engagement and Consultation

·      Ōtautahi Christchurch Future Transport (consultation closes 8 December 2024)

The strategy will guide investment and work programme prioritisation through the Council's annual and long-term planning processes, shaping the Council's strategic transport investment, planning and policy work programmes.

Description automatically generatedActions proposed for investigation in this plan such as mass rapid transit and pricing tools will require further public consultation in the future.

 

·      Draft Dog Control Bylaw and Policy 2024 (consultation closes 15 December 2024)

The Council is proposing changes to its Dog Control Policy and Bylaw. All Councils must have a policy on dogs and a bylaw to enforce it. Legislation requires bylaws to be reviewed at least once every 10 years, and for a dog control policy to be reviewed at the same time. The dog control bylaw was last reviewed in 2016.

Description automatically generatedThe policy and bylaw work together to regulate locally, including to specify public places where dogs are not allowed (prohibited) and where dogs must be on a leash.

The bylaw and policy apply across the whole of the district, which includes Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.

·      Draft Parks and Reserves Bylaw 2025 (consultation closes 15 December 2024)

The Council maintains and manages nearly 1,300 parks and reserves covering over 10,000 hectares in Christchurch City and Banks Peninsula. This includes the Christchurch Botanic Gardens, Hagley Park, or other significant heritage gardens, sports, neighbourhood and regional parks as well as open and closed cemeteries.

The parks and reserves bylaw sets out rules for the management and use of our public parks and reserves for the benefit and enjoyment of everyone. It applies across Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.

The current bylaw is largely working as intended so the Council is using the review to make it more reader friendly and easier to understand. They’re also improving consistency, amending some definitions, and have given the wording a good tidy-up.

 

 

·      Draft Trade Waste Bylaw 2025 (consultation closes 12 January 2025)

Trade waste is the commercial and industrial liquid waste that is disposed of through the Christchurch City Council wastewater network. The Trade Waste Bylaw sets the rules for the trade waste consent system. Overall, the current bylaw achieves its purpose and regulates the right things. However, the Council is proposing some changes to address issues that have emerged over the past 10 years.

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!
