Submission summary<br />
over 65 self identified with disability, in addition to the work being done in the<br />
rural community, we would like to suggest that Council further support Hamilton<br />
City to develop a detailed GIS based accessibility and mesh block level census<br />
information database to provide accurate data to support public transport network<br />
review and development to ensure that elderly and disabled people, as well as<br />
those with other transport disadvantages, are able to safely and independently<br />
use a combination of pedestrian routes and public transport to move around their<br />
community.<br />
Decision<br />
Council is working with HCC on an accessibility mapping project for the city.<br />
The purpose of the project is to develop a model that understands the ability for<br />
households to access key destinations (e.g. schools, supermarkets and<br />
employment) and via which modes (private motor vehicle, walking, public<br />
transport, etc). The model can be used to identify areas that are least accessible<br />
and determine where transport investment should be targeted within the city to<br />
provide best value for money with regard to improving accessibility for the<br />
transport disadvantaged.<br />
The first stage of this project aims to develop a base year model and a needs<br />
assessment and indicator framework. Further proposed stages will consider in<br />
more detail the needs of people with limited mobility or a physical disability(s).<br />

Submitter: 55 New Zealand National Fieldays Society<br />
Matter: PTP11-55.2<br />
Summary: The vision for public transport is supported, insofar as it promotes<br />
integrated, sustainable transport which provides an alternative to private use.<br />
Decision<br />
Comments noted<br />
The special events section 7.2.6 provides the framework around implementing<br />
service delivery to events facilities like MCEC.<br />
Objective 1 (‘strengthen integration’) is supported insofar as NZNFS recognizes<br />
the need for a public transport system to be closely integrated with land use<br />
development.<br />
Objective 3 (‘provide an attractive alternative to private vehicle travel’) is<br />
supported in principle, though there is no evidence within the Draft RPTP that this<br />
will be implemented to the benefit of rural-based community facilities such as the<br />
MCEC.<br />
Reword objective 3 to reflect rural as well as urban<br />
Accept<br />
Amend Objective 3 to read: “This objective is aimed at both urban and rural<br />
communities but is particularly...”<br />
The primary focus of Objective 4 is on accessibility for the transport<br />
