City council staff have reported to the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board and said consultants have been appointed to “provide an independent review/ opinion” of the Glandovey and Idris Rd intersection layout. It comes following a longstanding bid from the Glandovey, Idris and Straven Residents’ Association to improve pedestrian and cyclist safety at the intersection. The city council has also commissioned traffic modelling to forecast effects that any changes to the intersection and restrictions, such as those proposed for heavy vehicles, could have on the wider network. “Additional traffic counts have been commissioned . . . along with tube counts on the four arms of the intersection. The tube counts will measure volumes, speeds and classification of the vehicles, types and size,” the report said. •Turn to page 4 •Traffic safety idea, page 3 LET’S GO SHOPPING Preloved & quality • Clothing /Footwear • Bricabrac • Furniture • Household items Late night Thurs open till 6.30pm 1 Amyes Rd, Hornby Ph. 349 4163 Hours: Mon - Fri 9am-4.30pm, Sat 9.30am-1.30pm 335b Riccarton Rd, Church Cnr Ph. 341 8539 Hours: Mon - Fri 9.30am-5pm, Sat 9.30am-2.30pm Like us on Facebook Thankyou for your support Hornby Family Store
