On the 15th March 2011 Studio 6225 advanced around different areas of the Silverdale district taking photos and anaylising each stop. As we were reading plans and being explained that Silverdale only covers 1% of the Aucklands new three thousand dwelling development, it became clear that Silverdale was undergoing some dramastic transformations for new sub devisions, restoration wetlands and infrastructure. As Landscape Architects our aim was to recognise and analyse the main landscape elemtns within the North Island - Auckland - Silverdale, in order to - Identify areas of potential settlement growth can be imple mented - Demonstrate Landscape Architeture design analysis to sup port spacial decision making - Apply ecological design priniciples The idea became clear that this assigment was not to design any new infrastructure planning, but to create a develop a growth strategy in or around Silverdale. By undertaking this process our team of four needed to anaylise potential catchement using Archgis to find out what areas within Silverdale can achieve the aims stated above.

Identity

02 Introduction Project Brief

Location

An expansion over 170 years, Auckland has grown from a small cluster of residential and business areas surrounding the shelter belts and trading ports into a thriving metropolis. Increased population and housing situations highlight the ongoing demands to plan for a sustainable future. Heading North towards Silverdale district travelers begin to see developing infrastructure such as bridges, retail and entertaiment activities.

Silverdale is a village approximately 30km north of Auckland city in the North Island of New Zealand. It is located on the north bank of the Weiti River and lies to the west of the Whangaparaoa Peninsula. The former State Highway 1 runs southwest to north-east through the village and is now designated State Highway 17.

A long time in the making Silverdale

Backround Silverdale has been selected as a transforming project under the the Rodney district. It is one of many developing areas in Auckland with new residential sections, infrastructure, roading, retail and roading. There is a continuous development of storm water and waste water management along the new sections to create an increase of biodiversity through natural flora and fauna The rural residential surroundings are beginning to intensify to the South West of Silverdale. State highway 17 has a number of recreation activities such as Snow Planet, Aucklands luge and Go Karting and further recreation and ancilary activities to develop in future years to come. Silverdale North (millwater) is in the process of developing an open space, commercial zoning on greenfield land, to increase employment opportunities earthworks have commenced.

Wade Hotel

Backround

For a small town away from Auckland city centre, the Silverdale community have been quietly growing with the neighbourhood towns. With the population rise and surrounding town developments, Silverdale also has great opportunity for the future ahead.

The name of Silverdale was first known as The Wade, this was arranged by the residents regards in 1911. However the original land mark was named ‘Te Weiti’ by the Maori Community settlement, it means ‘The Cabbage Tree River’. The translation had few varies but this was the most convincing translation.

With the meaning of ‘Te Weiti’, it demonstrates the extents of the rivers and streams. The hydrology was an important element in the early European development because the main Silverdale Hotel transport systems were by the sea. Of course this is before the Harbour Bridge was built in 1959. Previously the ships and boat were used to travel the wade river and come right into the town centre where the Wade hotel was and still is today. Although high level of water travelling have been significantly reduce since then, there are boats running close to the old Silverdale port, proving that the river is cable of supporting the water traveller.

The south east of the Silverdale near the Weiti River was the first town settlement, and it was developed towards the centre where the commercial buildings are based today. For a humble little town, several churches and numbers of schools were built. Subsequently, new north development distract was organised with industrial businesses.

Hydrology

Overground

This analysis of hydrology was to study the water catchments and find the possible local water resource. We have layered the hydrology map with the topographical map to find the catchment location. As the result, the Long bay area and forest lot next to the Waiwera was designated as the significant catchment site. With further investigation of vegetation, the catchment near the Waiwera appears to have much richer and possible expansion forest for better water system development. Our possible idea is to build a Micro dam to filter the water and plans to become the major water source for Silverdale and surrounding nearby

Underground

6225 Landscape Architecture

Macro

Hydrology

This analysis is to study the water usage and the water travelling. The busy area is where the underground pipes are buried, also where the populations are concentrated.

This was also an important map to present in relation to our strategy of an introduction to new water resource near Silverdale. Within the two catchments we have found through the study of topographical map, we have made a conclusion of the Long bay was unadaptable due to high number of dwellings and infrastructures, but Waiwera area appears to have less underground works and less disturbed.

Infrastructure

Infrastructure that support Silverdale and down the East, west coast of Auckland show roads, schools, railways, and developed areas. The basic physical structure and orginization of the area support the society by a basic of social services. These facilities are necessary for an economy to function.

This data showed that the average earnings fall in the higher pay scale of 100K, which is controversial to the average age as the majority of people living in the region are 0-19. This data proceeded to be inconclusive for our findings.

This data shows high consumption of electricity for the region, followed by wood and gas. Fuel, solar power and coal are not evident and lead to a notion of using resources more efficiently as part of the efforts towards being more sustainable.

Vegetation The legend is missing

The main lime green area is the forest and bush lot, the dark green is the regional parks and the mustard is the farmland. The orange parts are the native forest, this element is only covering the extents of the Silverdale area because we did not had access to the whole of Auckland.

Transport

Network

Aucklandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rapidly growing population and economy means we need to prepare and plan an efficient transport system. The idea is to produce economic wellbeing within the buffer and create employment opportunities around the stations and improve the quality of life and efficiencies for people living and working in the local area. Park and ride: Currently there are two existing park and ride stations situated at Albany and Constellation, and a proposed park and ride to be a 16km extension of the existing station to serve the communities of Silverdale. A 5km buffer situated around the stations will determine an efficient travel distance for commuters. Ferry: A proposed ferry terminal will be situated up the Weiti River and will link commuters from the

Meso

Transport

This map covers the main means of travel to work and revels that there is a high percentage of private vehicles on the road during the peak hours of travelling to and from work. In this area particularly the public transport is limited and shows in statistics that this is not a main means of travel.

Ecological

Focusing on preserving green lands, such as the indigenous forest and looking at ideal land type for the farmlands, including identification of the possible population development area; where we disturbed less natural habitat and distort lands that is fit for better usage such as farmlands. By canceling out each significant vegetation we can then indentify the best areas for portential wind farms.

As you can see there is a range coming from all parts of New Zealand, such as food resources being brough in from from.....and..... Electricity coming in from... This creates a highly clustered input flow, where we aim

To be more resilient, the region must be less dependent on surrounding regions. The imbalance of resources used compared with the resources given out; require smarter planning for sustainable future development in the Silverdale community.

Summary

Previously humans have been forced to find and efficiently use local resources and dispose of their waste locally. With efficient transport and globalization, everyday we use and consume resources from far away, being dependent on countries a world away for our transport.

tions in the new residential and industrial developments. Development within the specified areas will be either encouraged or forced collect energy from the wind or sun.

This strategy is about creating a more resilient and sustainable landscape of the Silverdale region while outlining areas within it for future urban growth of varying types. This means that it must be able to maintained indefinitely while being adaptive to change.

Currently the water used in Silverdale is sourced from the Waitakere Ranges and piped some 40km before use. In order to relieve some pressure from Auckland's already strained water network the Waiwera river catchment will be tapped as a water source, with water being taken from micro dams or directly from the river to minimise the impact on the valley.

What we want for Silverdale is a Resilient Sustainable Landscape, one that is "a physical place where human communities, resources uses and the caring capacities of surrounding ecosystems can all be perpetually maintained." (Thayer, Robert, 1994). Only this form of landscape will be self sufficient and begin to address the imbalance in the resource and energy flows in and out of the city and country. We propose that energy be collected locally from renewable sources, primarily being wind and solar based generation in the open and on buildings, while encouraging its conservation through enforcing stricter energy efficiency regula-

Inspired by the past.

This catchment was chosen because it primarily drains from land currently in bush or that will be retired to bush of forestry due to it's steep slope and will be made into a regional park ensuring it's water remains pure and to provide a local recreation area. Catchments near Okura and Stillwater may also be used for similar reasons. Water Collection from the roofs of buildings and conservation (such as grey water recycling) will also be encouraged through financial or legislative incentives.

Future nodes

6225 Landscape Architecture Much of the richest soils in the Auckland region have been squandered, however to encourage local production of food, soils of the Land Use Capability classes 2 and 3 (land with slight and moderate limitations for arable use, but mostly suitable for cropping pasture of forestry) will be reserved from the development. Despite the areas around them being developed, they will be kept in production by being rated in a different way, to prevent land prices driving off producers. A single farmer may own or operate several of these spaces. They will also operate as green belts and a visual amenity. Although all the produce may not be sold locally it is hoped that the land will continue to bring income to the area. "The first step to living sustainably as a resolution is to remain in ones region, near the local ecology, make it home and make it work" (Snyder 1991) Our strategy aims to increase the number of people living close to where they work by providing local employment options (the potential industrial and commercial areas) and efficient convenient transport to them from the new residential areas. This transport will take the form of a railway line. This branches off from the Main North Line at Kaukapakapa and follows the Kaukapakapa and Waitoki rivers east before passing through a 900m long tunnel and descending into the Orewa River catchment. This line will meet others that feeds developments in the Dairy Flat, and Weiti Catchments. All three feed the proposed ferry terminal located on the Wade River near to the existing wharf. This provides the primary alternative longdistance travel option while the railway lines, using tram-trains (Trams capable of running at high speeds on railway lines) act as a local transit form, with services extending no further than the Orewa catchment. This transit form means that a tram may share a road delivering passengers directly to where they need to go, while avoiding traffic inbetween.

The proposed railway line serves a secondary and profitable purpose, providing a Rail freight terminal for the entire North Shore and an alternative freight option to trucks, taking more traffic off of an already congested highways. These lines, if extended to Dairy Flat and beyond as shown may eventually connect to the new Waitemata Harbour crossing and proposed rail route to Albany, however the cost of this bridge was the reason the route shown was chosen. The main areas of development have been suggested for the Weiti, Orewa and Dairy Flat Catchment areas. In the upper Weiti and Orewa valleys we have indicated small medium to high density residential developments that will act as small transit oriented developments, revolving around their town centre in which the tram-train will stop at (some will have a freight bypass) The lower flatter areas of the Dairy Flat, Orewa and Weiti catchments are the prime focus for the industrial and commercial zones, as this land is the most suited due to it these activities and is served by the alternative transport. These will be divided by low density housing, farmland (as mentioned earlier) park land and reserves (land set aside due to it's slope). At this stage of planning we have only broadly indicated the layout of these areas as this was not our focus. Much more research will be required to determine the best and most efficient layout of these areas themselves and in relation to each other. Finally, wastewater will be treated on site (either on each property or in a local plant) where possible, with possible use of composing or wetland biological sewage systems (Thayer, R. 1994) within the residential areas, which safely return nutrients to the land which are

27 otherwise wasted. This would be complemented by the existing sewage treatment plant and system, but would remove the extra pressure that would be put on it by the new development. These local systems will also be more resilient (no reliance on pumping stations and electricity) and if managed right, will prevent the current problems of sewage overflow into storm water and the sea.
