Joint traffic bylaw review feedback report

 

Marilyn Nicholls, Elected Member Relationship Partner – Auckland Transport, was in attendance via MS Teams to address the board on this item.

 

 

Resolution number KT/2024/195

MOVED by Chairperson J Gillon, seconded by Member A Tyler:  

That the Kaipātiki Local Board:

a)          whakarite / endorse the proposed changes on the review of Auckland Transport (AT) and Auckland Council (AC) traffic-related bylaws outlined in Attachment A of the agenda report, and provide the following feedback:

i)           Topic 3 – Unformed Roads: Include a specific definition on “unformed roads” (paper roads) in the new bylaw, and a reference to the “Management of Unformed Legal Roads” policy. 

ii)         Topic 9 – Parking vehicles off a roadway (for example berm parking): Include an exemption for vehicles that are being washed on grass berms, as this is preferable to cleaning fluids going into the stormwater system, which is often the case if cars are washed in driveways or other paved areas. Auckland Council currently advises washing vehicles on grass, but many homes do not have vehicle access to a grass area other than a public berm.

iii)        Topic 12 – Special Events: Include an ability for Local Board-funded events to be processed faster and cheaper, with reduced requirements for transport management plans.

iv)        Topic 13 – Unsuitable (including heavy) traffic: Include the ability for Auckland Transport to require compensation to repair damage done to vehicle accessways (to private property) caused by heavy vehicles during construction of developments at neighbouring addresses, as well as roads.

v)         Topic 16 – Broken down vehicles on a road or public place: This topic needs to be strengthened to enable Auckland Transport to remove broken or abandoned vehicles from roads and public places more easily and more quickly. We acknowledge that there are statutory restrictions, however this is an area of concern in the community and this problem needs a clearer, faster and more robust response.

b)         tuhi ā-taipitopito / note the board’s concern that policy for Rangatahi should be developed to inform council core business practices, not to promote the development and funding of new activities that are appropriate for government departments such as the Ministry of Social Development and Oranga Tamariki.

c)          tono / request that sport has a greater focus in this document, noting the many thousands of Rangatahi who actively participate in and on Auckland Council facilities each week.
