The city council’s acting head of transport Lynette Ellis said they are making it safer, easier and more attractive to catch the bus by moving the bus stop, building a better bus shelter and creating a new waiting area. Lynette Ellis Work involves moving the New Brighton Rd bus stop towards the Marshland Rd intersection to create a more attractive space for the 250 bus passengers who use the bus stop daily. “The existing bus stop is on the south side of the mall which is exposed to the weather and has poor visibility from the mall entrances. “The new bus stop and shelter will be located by the car park and has better connectivity to The Palms and other connecting bus services.” The work includes a better bus shelter, indented bus bays, improved lighting, new bike racks at the bus stop, replacing the existing magnolia trees with new magnolias and landscaping plus new kerb and footpath work where the existing bus stop was. IMPROVEMENT: An artist’s impression of the new bus hub to be built outside The Palms Mall in Shirley. IMAGE: NEWSLINE “We’ll be using part of The Palms car park to construct the relocated bus stop and this will be a short detour for pedestrians while we do the work but the disruption will be minimal. “Bus users can continue to use the existing bus stop while we work on the new one,” Ellis said. Work on the hub started this week and is expected to be finished in December. Council can do a better job • From page 1 “These roads provide vital evacuation routes and the community needs confidence that these changes will enable this. “As a private citizen, I didn’t have access to the plans for the upgrade of the streets around the bridge, but now I can review them and prepare for their release shortly. “I want to be able to talk with the community about the upgrades,” she said. Her other priority will be to seek clearer information on the completion of earthquake legacy issues. “Many of the repairs are long overdue and the community has fought hard for these repairs and want no further delays.” Donovan believes council can do a better job of engaging and communicating with communities. “We need to improve access to decision makers, reform outdated systems, and encourage active citizenship. “Low voter turnout in the recent election is a clear sign that something needs to change. “The next few months will be critical for communities here as there is lots happening and people need to feel that their opinions count.’’ PICK IT UP...
