Have your say on Access for Everyone Pedestrian priority vision
Have your say until 18 October on the City centre Access for Everyone proposal
- a Pedestrian priority vision. It will be great for residents in creating safe, more people-friendly streets, whilst still maintaining access for those who really need it.
Access for Everyone is a new idea to create more space in the city centre, responding to the needs of residents and our neighbourhoods.
The concept is based on reallocating street space in favour of people, operations and street functions and reorganising access to prioritise trips needed to support the city centre.
Benefits:
more attractive and inclusive city streets
more space for deliveries, servicing, construction and emergency services
better air quality
better public health from reduced pollution, lower traffic volumes.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16% ... It is complicated
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
