Submissions support cycleway<br />
• By Fiona Ellis<br />
THE MAJORITY of 424<br />
submissions support the third<br />
and final section of the Nor’west<br />
Arc Cycleway, a city council<br />
analysis has revealed.<br />
Just 12 per cent of submitters<br />
opposed the construction of<br />
the cycleway, which would link<br />
Canterbury University to Jellie<br />
Park and Harewood Rd, and<br />
a further 23 per cent were<br />
neutral.<br />
However, design details<br />
divided the submitters on the<br />
project, which has received $10.5<br />
million in funding as part of<br />
the Government ‘shovel ready’<br />
projects.<br />
Safety and parking were<br />
frequent concerns.<br />
Submitters were split on the<br />
two proposed designs for Ilam<br />
Rd.<br />
A one-way cycleway on each<br />
side of the road was favoured<br />
by 55 per cent of submitters<br />
who selected an option, while<br />
45 per cent preferred a two-way<br />
cycleway on the west side of the<br />
road.<br />
Of those who supported<br />
the first option, safety was a<br />
common reason, cited by 32<br />
submitters.<br />
Ilam Rd residents W and PJ<br />
Gilroy said it was obviously the<br />
safer option.<br />
“We will only have to look one<br />
way for approaching cyclists as<br />
we exit our drive and we will<br />

have a clear view of vehicles<br />
approaching from the right. At<br />
present, our view is obstructed<br />
by vehicles parked close to the<br />
exit from our garage and drive.”<br />
University lecturer Mads<br />
Thomsen, who said he cycled to<br />
the university every day, called<br />
the first option “1000 times<br />
better, safer, and more efficient”<br />
as it would reduce the need for<br />
cyclists to cross the road.<br />
The need to retain parking<br />
spaces was a popular reason<br />
among those who favoured<br />

submitters.<br />
Mortlocks Lawyers Partner<br />
Guy Mortlock favoured a twoway<br />
cycleway, stating there was<br />
already a shortage of parking<br />
in the area, especially with high<br />
demand from students.<br />
“It is important to retain as<br />
much parking as possible, while<br />
still making cycling safer than it<br />
currently is,” he said.<br />
Safety was also cited as a factor<br />
by 12 submitters who preferred<br />
the second option.<br />

Bellbird Hearing Clinic<br />
Manager Sam Sloane stated he<br />
was afraid a cycleway in front<br />
of the clinic, located on the east<br />
side of Ilam Rd would create an<br />
increased risk of car accidents<br />
with his elderly clients and<br />
supported a two-way cycleway<br />
instead.<br />
Submitters were also split on<br />
the proposed design options<br />
for Aorangi Rd from the<br />
intersection of Ilam Rd to them<br />

the west side of the road was<br />
preferred by 62 per cent of<br />
submitters who selected an<br />
option, while 38 per cent<br />
preferred a shared path on the<br />
west side of the road.<br />
Safety was a top concern by<br />
those who preferred the first<br />
option, cited by 40 submitters.<br />
For example, submitter Paul<br />
Ainsworth said a shared path<br />
would be disastrous.<br />
“Having scooters, cycles etc<br />
travelling at 30km/h in the same<br />
area as pedestrians will only lead<br />
to serious accidents,” he said.<br />
Fourteen submitters who<br />
chose this option also wanted to<br />
avoid poor user behaviour they<br />
believed would be an issue with a<br />
shared path.<br />
Submitter Richard Ibbitt<br />
said his experience with shared<br />
pathways had not been good.<br />
“The pedestrian usually has<br />
to give way to cyclists, not all of<br />
whom seem to appreciate that<br />
a shared space means that all<br />
parties using the pathways have<br />
to be equally considerate.”<br />
Although the second option<br />
of a shared path was less<br />
popular overall, all of those who<br />
lived along this section of the<br />
route and made a choice between<br />
the two designs selected this<br />
option.<br />
Maintaining on-road car<br />
parking was the reason cited<br />
by 30 submitters who chose<br />
this option.<br />
