4 - 4 - ATTACHMENT 1 TO CLAUSE BURWOOD/PEGASUS COMMUNITY BOARD SUBMISSIONS SUBCOMMITTEE 23 APRIL 2015 Minutes of a meeting of the Submissions Committee held on Monday 23 April 2015 at 12.00pm in the Shirley Library and Service Centre, 36 Marshland Road, Christchurch PRESENT: APOLOGIES: Linda Stewart (Chairperson), Andrea Cummings, Tim Sintes and Stan Tawa An apology for absence were received and accepted from Tim Baker. The Committee reports that: At its meeting on 17 March 2014, the Board established the Submissions Committee, giving it the delegation to respond to submission opportunities on behalf of the Board, when timeframes necessitate such action. PART C DELEGATED DECISIONS 1. DECLARATION OF INTEREST Nil. 2. CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL LONG TERM PLAN BURWOOD PEGASUS WARD CONCERNS: CRITICAL NEEDS: Proposed spending in the ward does not recognising the wide spread of earthquake damage and lack of recovery projects. Land Sales: Urge the council to allocate the proceeds of the sale of part of the Queen Elizabeth II Park to the Ministry of Education be invested in the Burwood-Pegasus Ward for the purposes of recovery projects. The sale proceeds of other significant council land within the ward such as Porritt Park and Ben Rarere or any not yet advised, be allocated back to three critically needed high priority recovery projects the Board feels are critical to recovery of our eastern suburbs: 1. Eastern Sport & Recreation Centre: (replacing lost swimming facilities) Providing extra pool space to the proposed Eastern recreation and sports complex at Queen Elizabeth II Park that will also require to service the needs of two High Schools (2,000 students approx..).

5 - 5 - ATTACHMENT 1 TO CLAUSE 3 CONT'D 2. The New Brighton Legacy Project: Item 424 New Brighton Playground. The Committee agreed to recommend moving the amounts of $559 (FY19) and $2,408 (FY20) into financial year Item 1982 Major Cycleway: Avon-Otakaro: Proposed that the $25 in financial year 2016 be moved to 2017 to increase that budget to $363. Item 2383 Suburban Master Plan: New Brighton (Transport activities) fully supported. 3. Flood protection work within the ward. Seen as crucial. Agreed to: Support the retention of the Rawhiti Golf Club and CB to continue working closely Support an open process to investigate retention of the South New Brighton Camp Grounds, including evaluation of the privately sourced Geotech report on the land Support the evaluation of the proposal from the Northshore Residents Association and Community Connection Nga Ngaru for a North Beach Walkway/promenade (noting that Environment Canterbury support the proposal). The Committee considered the Capital Works proposed for the ward. Item 2344 Bottle Lake Forest Park Rangers HQ Replacement: The Committee would prefer the addition of toilets and a kitchen to the information centre to provide a community meeting space. There is no such space in the area - this was important as the residential development off Waitikiri and the Prestons development exacerbates demand already raised by the development of Tumara Park. Item 913 Marshland Road Bridge - noted this lay entirely within the Shirley- Papanui ward and not Burwood-Pegasus. Items 8844 and Black spot Remedial Work Pages/Breezes Road and Kerrs / Woodham- need more information. NOTE: Since confirmed that zero dollar items should have been filtered out of the listings as they have already been funded form the current or previous financial years. Under Parks and Open Spaces, items 1227 to 8234 more information is required. The Committee considered the Unfunded listing of Capital Projects. Item New Brighton master plan open space projects. Agreed to transfer $263,000 from item Major Cycleway: Avon - Otakaro Route, into year Being the total of years 2016 and Highlight in the intro of a normal submission format. Item 931 Core Public Transport Route & Facilities: East (New Brighton). Agree that $19m from the Museum redevelopment capital grant be deferred (as recommended in The People's Choice document) and used instead for immediate health and safety footpath repairs. Item 927 Pages Road Upgrade - more details required.

6 - 6 - ATTACHMENT 1 TO CLAUSE 3 CONT'D SUMMARY: The Committee requested staff to supply a summary of total capital expenditure per ward. Completed as attached. Consideration and comment: In his absence, Tim Baker had asked the Committee to: Consider the People's Choice A Common Sense Plan for Christchurch: An alternative to the Council s Long Term Plan The Committee looked at the alternative Plan's Strategies and so merit in the proposals to minimise financial burden on ratepayers by financing the urgent work and delaying the controversially considered not so urgent work. Retain the money making council owned companies that provide short and longer term revenue for recovery projects. Key Strategy 1 Trim 15% ($700m) from the capital works programme of $4.68b Defer $253m stadium complex. Save $110m in borrowing, or $253m in total if insurance pay-out included Flood protection ($440m). Spend $260m on urgent work. Defer $180m of non-urgent, unspecified work until plans are ready Water supply ($277m). Defer $60m of non-urgent work Sewerage ($642m). Defer $100m of non-urgent work Stormwater ($150m). Re-programme work. Save $30m Museum redevelopment. Defer capital grant of $19m New cycleways ($156m). Do the easy routes quickly. Recognise that property purchases will cause long delays. Schedule payments for routes that require expensive property purchase later. Save $30m Corporate IT enhancements ($126m). Reduce spend by $63m. Of these strategies, the Committee agreed in principle with the deferral of non-urgent flood protection outside of urgent work required for South Shore, South Brighton and Avondale and the proposal for new cycleways. With regard to the proposals for water supply and sewerage, clarity was needed on what "nonurgent" meant. Clarity also needed on what the Corporate IT enhancement involved - staff undertook to seek that clarification. Key Strategy 2 Don t privatise parts or our entire airport, port, electricity network or other strategic assets. They bring in good money. The Committee supported non-privatising. Recommended retention of 75% of assets and lock at selling non-strategic assets such as surplus land. The Committee saw merit in delaying non-urgent proposals as suggested in the alternative plan.

7 - 7 - ATTACHMENT 1 TO CLAUSE 3 CONT'D Key Strategy 3 Use our savings wisely Reduce borrowing which will save ratepayers hundreds of millions in interest Speed up repair of local roads Restore funding cut from community groups (approx. $1m per annum) Restore funding to Community Boards for local projects ($2m per annum). The Committee agreed with strategy 3 in entirety. Key Strategy 4 The Council needs to work with the Government Ask Government to use $37m they have allocated to the stadium for repair of roads Ask the Government to pay its share of unfunded earthquake repair work. If the current review finds the unfunded earthquake repair work is $300m, the Government's 60% share would be $180m. The Committee agreed with strategy 4 in entirety. Summary of views on the People's Choice A Common Sense Plan for Christchurch: An alternative to the Council s Long Term Plan": The Committee neither agreed or disagreed with the alternative Plan in total as the stated achievements of it were hypothetical. The Committee did, however, agree with most of the strategies within the alternative plan. Looking at city wide initiatives: Recommend deferral of the $235m stadium complex and instead accept a repair programme based on independent engineering evaluation. This repair is covered by insurance and is more prudent spending of council funds and shows more responsibility towards the city s ratepayers already carrying the burden of earthquake recovery projects such as the Convention Centre and the Sports Metro and Ngai Puna Wai. Noted that the major rugby franchises are willing to go back. Note - the following matters were not considered by the Committee due to lack of time: LATE ENTRIES: Previous projects for Avondale and Dallington. Those areas have NO meeting places. Very tired people, lost 37% and 55% to red zoning. Many selling up, now many rentals or very disconnected permanent residents. Very tired ARA, DRA and DCCT committees likely to cease. NEED: Appropriately sized community meeting facilities to put a hub where there wasn t one before and now critically needed. Purpose meetings, community classes craft, resource centre. These communities are falling through the cracks. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION That the minutes of the Submissions Committee meeting of 23 April 2015 be received and that the submission prepared on the Christchurch City Council Draft Long Term Plan be retrospectively approved by the Board. The meeting concluded at 2.30pm.

PRESENT: Burwood/Pegasus Community Board Shirley/Papanui Community Board Tim Baker (Deputy Chairperson), David East, Glenn Livingstone, Tim Sintes and Stan Tawa. Mike Davidson (Chairperson), Aaron Keown (Deputy Chairperson), Jo Byrne, Pauline Cotter, Ali Jones and Emma Norrish. APOLOGIES: An apology for absence was received and accepted from Andrea Cummings, Linda Stewart and Barbara Watson. The Board reports that: PART B - REPORTS FOR INFORMATION 1. DECLARATION OF INTEREST There were no declarations of interest. 2. BRIEFING 2.1 MARSHLAND ROAD, LOWER STYX ROAD AND HAWKINS ROAD PROPOSED INTERSECTION UPGRADE The Community Boards received a pre-consultation briefing from Adrian Thein, Project Manager, Kelly Griffiths, Project Manager, Bill Rice Traffic Engineer, and Christine Toner, Consultation Leader, on the Marshland Road, Lower Styx Road and Hawkins Road proposed intersection upgrade. The upgrade proposes to introduce traffic signals at the intersection of Marshland Road, Lower Styx Road and Hawkins Road and to widen the lanes on the west and east side of Marshland Bridge over Sytx River. This will allow for a foot path and cycle lane to cater for pedestrians and cyclists. The speed limits in the area are currently 70 kilometres per hour on Marshland Road and 80 kilometres per hour on lower Styx Road and Hawkins Road which will need to be assessed as part of a safety audit.

16 GLOUCESTER STREET AND GAYHURST ROAD BRIDGE APPROACHES Contact Contact Details General Manager responsible: Officer responsible: Author: General Manager, Culture Leisure and Parks Joint Interim Manager, Transport and City Streets Mark Millar, Senior Traffic Engineer Tara King, Consultation Leader N N Y Y DDI: DDI: PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT 1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek that the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board recommend that Council approve interim safety improvements to the approaches to the new Gayhurst Road Bridge. The Board is also asked to approve the safety improvement matters that fall under its delegated authority. 1.2 This is a staff initiated report in response to the reopening of the Gloucester Street/Gayhurst Road Bridge and consequent associated traffic management changes required. 2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2.1 This report details the proposed safety works at the Gloucester Street/Avonside Drive intersection and its approaches. This proposal is an interim measure until more is known about developments in the Red Zone and future traffic flows. Safety improvements to the intersection are required in order to open the Gayhurst Road/Gloucester Street Bridge. 2.2 The proposal features include staggering the intersection of Gloucester Street and Avonside Drive, installing Stop controls on the east and west approaches of Avonside Drive to Gloucester Street, narrowing of the Gayhurst Road approach to the new bridge, shared pedestrian/cycle paths on the bridge and its approaches, and give way controls to cyclists crossing the Avonside Drive/Gloucester Street intersection on the shared path. 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Damage was sustained to the Gloucester Street/Gayhurst Road Bridge as a result of the earthquakes. The bridge was demolished in 2014 and a new bridge has been constructed in the same location. The new bridge is scheduled to open in the middle of this year, with a specific date yet to be determined. 3.2 Gayhurst Road and Gloucester Street are currently designated as Collector Roads. When the Gayhurst Road Bridge reopens it will provide a key link between the city and residential suburbs to the north. 3.3 A large portion of the land immediately to the north and northwest of the intersection of Gloucester Street and Avonside Drive is now red zoned. 3.4 Traffic signals at the Avonside Drive intersection with Gloucester Street were installed in 1994, and were removed because of bridge construction works. 3.5 There is a dairy on the southeast corner of the Avonside Drive and Gloucester Street intersection.

17 Cont'd 4. COMMENT 4.1 The boundary between the Hagley/Ferrymead Ward and the Burwood/Pegasus Ward runs along the middle of the Avon River. As a result, this report contains recommendations for the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board and another report will be presented to the meeting of the Hagley/Ferrymead Community Board on 20 May 2015 with the remaining recommendations. As Gloucester Street extends over the bridge up to the intersection of Gayhurst Road, Locksley Avenue and Dallington Terrace, some recommendations for Gloucester Street fall within the Burwood/Pegasus Ward. Each Board will consider resolutions relating specifically to the ward they represent. 4.2 It is proposed to stagger the intersection of Avonside Drive and Gloucester Street and install Stop controls on the west and east approaches to the intersection on Avonside Drive. The Avonside Drive approaches to Gloucester Street will be narrowed to a single three metre lane. This will allow traffic on either side of Avonside Drive to cross Gloucester Street safely. Right turning vehicles off Gloucester Street will be able to wait for any oncoming traffic on a central flush median. 4.3 It is proposed to provide one additional car park by the existing dairy in Avonside Drive. 4.4 It is proposed to narrow the road width on the Gayhurst Road approach to the Avonside Drive intersection in order to slow traffic and provide space for landscaping and a shared pedestrian/cycle path on the eastern and western sides of Gayhurst Road. Landscaping will physically separate vehicles and cyclists in the reconstructed section of Gayhurst Road. 4.5 It is proposed to provide shared pedestrian and cycle paths on the bridge and its approaches. Give Way controls will be installed to indicate cyclists should Give Way to traffic when travelling north and south through the intersection of Gloucester Street, Avonside Drive and Gayhurst Road. 4.6 This proposal is intended as an interim measure until more is known about developments in the Red Zone and future traffic flows. This proposal will provide safe movement of traffic across the new Gayhurst Road Bridge, and through the Avonside Drive/Gloucester Street/Gayhurst Road intersection for all road users. 4.7 Prior to the installation of traffic signals in 1994, this intersection had a high number of crashes, the majority of which were east-west traffic on Avonside Drive colliding with north-south traffic on Gloucester Street. 4.8 The volume of east-west traffic on Avonside Drive has reduced significantly and is expected to stay low. It is proposed to narrow the Avonside Drive to two lanes and stagger the intersection in order to improve safety for all road users, discourage traffic from using Patten Street, Retreat Road and Avonside Drive to bypass the traffic signals at the Woodham Road/Gloucester Street intersection. 4.9 Provision will be made in the proposal for future construction of the Avon/Otakaro cycleway proposed in the Christchurch Transport Strategic Plan by building up the southern bank of the river There are currently no on-road cycle facilities on Gayhurst Road and Gloucester Street. The Christchurch Transport Strategic Plan identifies both as recreational routes. In addition, with the vacant Red Zoned land immediately north of the Avon River on Gayhurst Road, vehicle operating speeds are likely to be higher than in built up areas. For these reasons, it is proposed to provide cycle facilities along Gayhurst Road, Gloucester Street and through the intersection of Gloucester Street and Avonside Drive It is proposed to close Dallington Terrace, Locksley Avenue and Rupert Place where they intersect with Gayhurst Road (refer Attachment 1).

18 Cont'd 5. CONSULTATION 5.1 The consultation plan for the Gayhurst Road Bridge and its approaches was considered by the Hagley/Ferrymead and Burwood/Pegasus Community Boards at the joint meeting on 23 March The consultation leaflet, Gayhurst Road Bridge and Approaches - proposed interim safety works, was delivered to 580 properties and also sent to other key stakeholders on 7 April Of the 25 respondents, 16 generally supported the plan, four did not support it, and five did not indicate a view. 5.4 Four submitters commented on the need for pedestrian and/or cycle links between Locksley Avenune, Gayhurst Road and Dallington Avenue. Pedestrian and cyclist connections to the bridge on the north side of the river have not been constructed. The priority is for through traffic pedestrians, cyclists and motor vehicles to travel from Gloucester Street to Gayhurst Road over the new bridge. Council will need to provide access over Gayhurst Road for pedestrians and cyclists if access to this area remains. 5.5 Another four submitters expressed concern about visibility, particularly the right hand turn from Avonside Drive onto the bridge. The project team has responded that visibility will not be an issue because Avonside Drive will be raised to tie in with the Gayhurst Road Bridge vertical alignment. 5.6 The absence of traffic signals in the consultation plan was not supported by five respondents who regarded this form of traffic control as the safest option. They were informed that the traffic signals were removed during construction of the bridge and will not be replaced as part of the current proposal. Without the signals, the intersection could not be left as a four - arm crossroads because of the historic crash record prior to the installation of the lights. As a result the intersection has been staggered with a flush median for right turning traffic. The removal of the signals will provide space for the Avon/Otakaro Major Cycleway Route. 5.7 Four submitters referred to the single lane approaches from Avonside Drive to Gloucester Street, meaning that right turning traffic may slow traffic flow. The proposed road layout encourages motor vehicles to use Woodham Road (an arterial road) and Gloucester Street (a collector road) rather than using Patten Street, Retreat Road and Avonside Drive to access Avonside Drive east. 5.8 Concerns about the safety of cyclists were expressed by four respondents. Submitters were told that different options have been considered for the intersection and the proposed layout will provide the safest option of all road users. Cyclists have been provided with a direct crossing point on Gloucester Street which is proposed on the shared path. This is part of the proposed Avon/Otakaro Major Cycle Route. This interim plan will be reviewed as the proposals for the Red Zone are developed. 5.9 Two submissions related to bus services. Environment Canterbury has indicated that the Orbiter will resume using the Gloucester Street/Gayhurst Road route when the bridge reopens. Two bus stops are located just south of the bridge but there will be no stops in the project area s Red Zone. The 3.5 metre wide traffic lanes designed to help slow traffic on the northern approach to bridge, will allow for buses and emergency vehicles Pedestrian safety was also raised by two submitters. The narrowing of the road will reduce the crossing distance for pedestrians Concern has been expressed about the possible loss of parking outside the dairy on the corner of Gloucester Street and Avonside Drive. One additional car park are proposed on Avonside Drive by the dairy. However, one existing car park will need to be removed to make way for the proposed build-out in front of the dairy.

19 Cont'd 5.12 As a result of the consultation and further technical advice, the below amendment to the plan for the Community Board recommendation and Council approval is for: The no stopping lines (along the tree lined area on the carriageway) on the north side of Gayhurst Bridge, on both sides of the road has been extended. This is to address safety concerns and to ensure vehicles do not park on this portion of the carriageway A consultation summary letter has been sent to all submitters, together with the plan for Community Board approval, details of the Community Board meetings, how to request speaking rights and a copy of all the submissions (with names/addresses removed for privacy reasons) and project team responses. 6. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 6.1 A betterment contribution of $668,000 for the installation of the traffic calming measures was recommended to Council on 20 December Council deferred, subject to consultation and engagement with the local community. Funding for Gayhurst Bridge betterment is still available for this project from the Council Building and Infrastructure betterment borrowing allowance should Council wish to apply them to this project. The roading construction funding will be from the earthquake repair budget as part of the cost sharing agreement. 7. STAFF RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board recommend that the Council: 7.1 Approve an allocation of $668,000 from the Council Infrastructure/Building betterment borrowing allowance for the Gayhurst Road Bridge to fund both the Hagley/Ferrymead and Burwood/Pegasus improvements. 7.2 Approve that the Council authorisation, in pursuance of the powers vested in it by Section 8.3 (1) of the Land Transport Rule-Traffic Control Devices 2004 (Rule 54002), and pursuant to the powers vested in it by the Local Government Act 1974 and 2002, to the head teacher of Saint Pauls Primary School to appoint appropriately trained persons to act as school patrols at the school crossing point as specified on Gayhurst Road, located at a point 94 metres north of its intersection with Rupert Place, be revoked. 7.3 Approve the lane marking changes, kerb build out changes, kerb alignment changes (including separation kerb between bicycles and motor vehicles), footpath alignment changes, and raised textured surfaces on Gloucester Street north of the Ward Boundary of the Burwood/Pegasus Ward with the Hagley/Ferrymead Ward in the centre of the Avon River extending in a northerly direction to its intersection with Gayhurst Road, Locksley Avenue and Dallington Terrace. 7.4 Approve the lane marking changes, kerb build out changes, kerb alignment changes, (including separation kerb between bicycles and motor vehicles), footpath alignment changes, and raised textured surfaces on Gayhurst Road from its intersection with Gayhurst Road, Locksley Avenue and Dallington Terrace and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 230 metres. 7.5 Approve that a special vehicle lane for the use of northbound bicycles only, be established on the west side of Gayhurst Road, commencing at a distance of 84 metres north of the intersection of Gloucester Street with Avonside Drive, and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 205 metres.
