It endorsed the plan to provide three mobility parks in the parking area outside the Wainuiomata Bowling Club.
It also endorsed the plan to provide two new mobility parks in the parking area outside the Wainuiomata Community Centre.
The third proposal the community board endorsed was including broken yellow lines –“No stopping at all times” – along the eastern kerb line of Te Ara Raukura.
The broken yellow lines would cover 10 metres and would be located nine metres from the Queen Street-Te Ara Raukura intersection.
“Following an independent road safety audit being completed for the Queen Street Town Centre Upgrade project, some minor safety concerns were identified at the Queen Street-Te Ara Raukura intersection,” Hutt
City Council’s Traffic Engineer Anita Manda said in a report to the board.
As a result, council officers recommended the “No stopping at all times” restriction “to ensure the intersection operates in the safest possible manner”.
