Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) is proposing several changes to Brougham St, including a pedestrian overbridge, building a third lane in place of car parks, and a shared cycle-pedestrian path.
The agency wants to have “T2 lanes” during peak hours – for buses, cars with at least one passenger, or motorcycles – but the Christchurch City Council wants them to extend beyond Brougham St all the way to Rolleston. Outside of peak times they would be available for parking.
In a submission to NZTA about the project, the city council said the proposals did not adequately consider the impacts on adjoining suburbs.
Brougham St bisects some of the oldest residential suburbs in the city including Sydenham, Spreydon, Waltham and Addington.
The council was concerned the proposals would increase the noise, vibrations and emissions for residents because the traffic would be closer to homes.
Part of the project’s success relied on the council making changes to surrounding roads, and the council called on NZTA to pay for those changes.
It did not want to see ratepayers burdened financially as a result of the project, and wanted to avoid a repeat of NZTA’s northern corridor project, for which the council had to spend millions of dollars adapting local roads.
Brougham St is classed as a state highway so is the responsibility of NZTA, but the roads leading into it are under the council’s control.
An average of 45,000 vehicles, including 4500 freight vehicles and trucks, use the road each day. It is a crucial link for vehicles carrying freight to and from Lyttelton Port.
Under the proposal, intersections will be upgraded, with more traffic signals, turn arrows and bus priority lights.
The pedestrian overbridge will connect Collins St and Simeon St, which under the plan would both become vehicle cul-de-sacs.
A shared cycle-pedestrian path would be separated from the westbound lane with new trees, between Simeon St and Opawa Rd.
The council said the shared path might not be wide enough for pedestrians and cyclists to safely travel together, and wanted to see it made wider.
It was also concerned the proposals did not provide for commuter cyclists, who were unlikely to use the shared path. The council wanted an assurance there would be provision for on-road cycle lanes at least 1.8 metres wide.
However, councillor Phil Mauger said at a council meeting on Thursday commuter cyclists should be encouraged to “rat run” (take shortcuts on side roads) down another road because there was not enough room for them on Brougham St.
Cr Melanie Coker was concerned there was no provision for a right hand turn into Selwyn St, but the council believed this would lead to vehicles rat-running.
She said the community had fought for a number of years to get the turn put in and to remove it was a “slap in the face for communities”.
She wanted NZTA to put the physical work on hold so it could address all the council’s submission points.
The council also criticised NZTA for holding consultation over the summer holiday period.
Public feedback on NZTA’s proposal closes on Friday (January 28).

The rights of the child, with their unprotected plight, because of their powerlessness, might well seem to supersede the comparative rights of the parent. The child has the otherwise unfettered potential to achieve a full, adult and happy life eventually able to make their own choices.
Since the child has no possibility of choosing, vaccine or no vaccine, who can intervene on the part of the child to protect them against the parent's dominant role?
Should the Government discuss a possible statutory right of the child for protection to make the child a temporary Ward of the Court (The Courts take over custody of the child in divesting parents of that role) in those Covid locations and situations.? Refer to the international United Nations Rights of the Child Convention: ( www.unhcr.org... › uk › 4d9474b49.pdf )
Those Ward of the Court powers already exist in New Zealand and are sometimes used for child protection. In those areas, where there is an established risk, if only to get the child vaccinated, should that protection and vaccination imperative be immediately established at law for the child's protection?
Previous uses of the Ward of the Court protection for the child have been used in NZ, Australia and elsewhere. For example, parents have refused to allow their child to receive blood transfusions and life-saving necessary medical interventions. Their medical intervention prevention was based only upon the religious convictions and faith of the parent.
An interesting discussion could ensue...
Regards,
