Seeking views on the proposed approach for Katoa, Ka Ora - Speed Management Plan for Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland 2024-2027 |
|
Resolution number HM/2023/48 MOVED by Deputy Chairperson B Loader, seconded by Member P Chan: That the Henderson-Massey Local Board: a) acknowledge that Katoa, Ka Ora Speed Management Plan for Tamaki Makaurau 2024-2027 aligns with the outcomes of the Henderson-Massey Local Board Plan that it is easy to get around Henderson-Massey safely without using a car. b) recognise the success of safer speed zones in Henderson-Massey in the Henderson North Home and Schools Zone and the Te Atatu South road safety improvements project. c) consider that implementing the easy-to-understand approach would benefit the community as proposed by providing consistent, permanent speed limit changes. d) tautoko / support all schools having a safe speed zone implemented within the local neighbourhood catchment rather than within a set radius around the school. e) do not support variable changes at school gates for arterial roads (high movement roads) and high-speed rural roads. f) support the high benefit cost-to-ration approach and has local knowledge to share that could help improve the high benefit cost-to-ratio approach. This information has already been shared with Auckland Transport at a local board workshop to be reviewed by Auckland Transport in accordance with its responsibility as a road controlling authority. g) consider that in response to numerous community requests for lower speed limits, partner and community requests should be prioritised by Auckland Transport to support a tailored approach. h) recognise that schools within Henderson-Massey strongly supported 30 km/h permanent speed limits for local (urban residential) roads. i) recommend that Auckland Transport prioritises the installation of traffic calming, pedestrian crossings and other infrastructure needed to support/reinforce speed limits in light of the numerous community requests for improved traffic infrastructure surrounding our schools. j) consider that a high total percentage cover should be consulted on in this phase of the programme. |
