Board calls for safety improvements for young pedestrians in south Auckland

Fears for the welfare of child pedestrians have grown from a boost in housing development around Walters Rd, Papakura.

More children are reportedly walking in the area prompting concerns about their safety.

The Papakura local board has called on Auckland Transport to investigate improving conditions near Pulman Park and neighbouring Kauri Flats School, a new school boasting nearly 300 students.

Board chair Brent Catchpole said there are a number of areas where driver behaviour is not as good as it should be, and that’s particularly concerning near major parks and schools.

Many people will tell you speeding is common, he said.

"Children are among our most vulnerable community members and they are entitled to our protection.

“If that means we have to get the police there to enforce things, and ask Auckland Transport to put in more permanent measures, we can’t shy away from that.”

The board has asked the agency to develop a concept plan for Walters Rd addressing health and safety issues for people, particularly children, trying to cross the road.

The board petitioned for a pedestrian crossing on Walters Rd outside Kauri Flats School and a 40kmh school zone speed limit.

It requested a slip road outside the athletic throwing net at Pulman Park, aligning crossing points with park entrances, creating defined twin lane exits at all points from the park, and urged AT to ensure all stakeholders are involved in any plan.

Papakura was not the only area of concern.

The board has also asked Auckland Transport to lower speed limits between Hingaia Bridge and the motorway, and at Harbourside Drive and its side roads due to increased housing development in the area.

Are you worried about safety for pedestrians in your neighbourhood?

Which roads could do with improvements?
