4.1 Neil Hodgson - Hampden Street/Waimea Road Intersection Proposed Road Closure

He said that insufficient consultation had taken place prior to the decision to close the intersection, and explained his concerns that the closure would detrimentally affect other roads and intersections in the area.

Ms Maslowska answered questions, and suggested installing traffic lights at the intersection might be a possible long-term solution to ensure safety at the intersection.

4.4 Dominic Alford - Hampden Street Closure
Her Worship the Mayor noted that Mr Alford had organised a petition supporting the closure of the intersection. She received the petition (A2269606), and read the petition statement.
Mr Alford spoke in support of the intersection closure, displayed photos (A2268889) and tabled a further letter in support of the closure (A2269584). He said his house overlooked the intersection, and he had seen a number of accidents happen there. He noted his concerns that the intersection was busy and used by large numbers of school children, and that an accident involving a child would be likely in the future if Council did not close the intersection.
Mr Alford said that concerns about the detrimental effect that closure might have on other roads or intersections in the area were outweighed by the safety benefits to be gained by closing the intersection.
Mr Alford answered questions, and suggested that traffic lights might be required at the Waimea Road/Franklyn Street intersection to improve overall road safety in the area.

4.5 Joy Shackleton – Tahunanui Cycleways
Her Worship the Mayor noted that Ms Shackleton had organised a petition against the route of the Great Taste Trail and Tahunanui Cycleways Stage Two cycleways. She received the petition (A2269543), and read the petition statement.
Ms Shackleton explained her concerns regarding the routes of the Great Taste Trail along Beach Road, and the Tahunanui Cycleways Stage Two route along Muritai Street. She said that these cycleways did not serve the needs of Tahunanui residents. She added that consultation had largely been influenced by people living outside of Tahunanui, with insufficient consultation taking place with Tahunanui residents.
Ms Shackleton answered questions, and suggested a cycleway along Golf Road, Bolt Road and joining the shared pathway near the airport would have been a preferable outcome for the Tahunanui Cycleways Stage One.

Jim McNabb tabled a petition against the Hampden Street intersection closure (A2264272). He read the petition statement.
He noted his agreement with Neil Hodgson’s public forum presentation, and explained his concerns that insufficient consultation with residents of the wider community had taken place prior to the decision. Mr McNabb explained his concerns that the closure would have a detrimental effect on other roads in the area, particularly that residents would attempt to use Locking Street as a thoroughfare. Mr McNabb said that making the intersection left-turn only, or putting in traffic lights would have been preferable outcomes.
