Thursday April 21 2022 3 Bid to ease concerns over cycleway CHANGES MAY be made to the Wheels to Wings cycleway design after concerns from the community. A hearings panel, chaired by Mayor Lianne Dalziel, has finished listening to public submissions on the plans for the cycleway, which will provide a route through Papanui, Bishopdale, Harewood, the airport area, the recreational cycling facilities at McLeans Island, and the destinations in between. “We have spent a number of Lianne Dalziel days over the past couple of months listening to people speak to their submissions and considering the written submissions we received and the revised design scheme,” said Dalziel. “There were some really well considered submissions and it is clear this is a very engaged community. “Some concerns were raised by submitters about the potential loss of parking around Nunweek Park. “To address this, we’re recommending that staff look at the viability of putting the MORE CHANGES: Safety improvements may be made to the Harewood Rd section of the Wheels to Wings cycleway near the entrance and exit to Mitre 10. IMAGE: NEWSLINE cycleway on the park side of the trees in Nunweek Park. “This option would actually allow us to increase the parking around Nunweek Park, as we could then put in angle parking along Harewood Rd.’’ The panel also recommended safety improvements are made to the Harewood Rd section of the cycleway by the entrance and exit to Mitre 10, city council staff investigate building a raised safety platform on Harewood Rd at the signalised pedestrian/ cycle crossing between Matsons Ave and Chapel St and the city council work to ensure the delivery of other transport projects in the area are aligned with the cycleway. Said Dalziel: “The hearings panel was particularly impressed by the time and effort that a group of submitters put into developing their own alternate design scheme. “We did seriously consider this alternate option but an independent review has raised significant safety concerns with it. “After considering all the submissions and seeking additional information from staff, the hearings panel is recommending the council approve the revised design scheme, with some changes. “The hearings panel’s full recommendations will be published online this week. They will be considered by the council in May. If the council approves the panel’s recommendations, the project will move to the detailed design phase,” Dalziel said. The city council has under taken two rounds of public consultation on the Wheels to Wings cycle route. During the first round in early 2021, the city council received more than 1300 submissions. While some of the 1300 submissions supported the plans for the cycleway, others raised concerns about aspects of the proposed route and the impact it would have on parking, property access and congestion. In response to that feedback and ongoing discussions with key stakeholders, directly affected businesses and residents, some initial changes were made to the plans for the cycle route. The revised plans were made public in late October 2021 and a second round of consultation initiated, which resulted in a further 86 submissions being received.
