  • Greater Christchurch Public Transport Issues What Needs Addressing? the Most Common Factors Influencing Transport Choice Are Cost, Comfort and Travel Time4
    Greater Christchurch Public Transport: A Case for Investment “We have a great opportunity to anticipate growth in Canterbury by shaping future land use and integrating transport options. Mō tātou, a, mō kā uri a muri ake nei. For us and for those who follow.” Steve Lowndes Chair, Environment Canterbury 1 Future of Public Transport in Greater Christchurch: A Case for Investment - Summary of Programme Business Case Introduction This document provides an updated investment story on the future of public transport in Greater Christchurch.

The PBC was prepared by the Greater Christchurch Public Transport Futures Project Team on behalf of the Greater Christchurch Partnership. The project team followed the NZ Transport Agency business case process; it was workshop led and developed through a collaborative process. Further detail on the process is provided in the full PBC and summarised at Attachment 1. This PBC has undergone several reviews including: a) Internal review of the document by Partnership staff b) External Peer Review by Aurecon/MR Cagney – including revised investment profile c) Investment review by NZTA staff d) Review by “Dragon’s Den” Review Panel of officials from NZTA and the Ministry of Transport e) Elements of the recommendations from the Business Case were included in the draft Regional Public Transport Plan.

  • Roundabout Safety – Influence of Speed, Visibility & Design
    ROUNDABOUT SAFETY – INFLUENCE OF SPEED, VISIBILITY AND DESIGN Dr Shane Turner, Associate (Transport), Beca Infrastructure Ltd [email protected] Aaron Roozenburg, Transportation Engineer, Beca Infrastructure Ltd [email protected] ABSTRACT Roundabout design in New Zealand generally follows the Austroad guideline for intersection design (Austroads, 2005), which recommends long approach sight distances and provision of relatively high design speeds. This is in contrast to European based design philosophy where visibility is normally restricted and the geometric design encourages slow approach and negotiation speeds. This paper reports on the results of a study that used crash prediction models to investigate how the characteristics of roundabouts influences safety at 104 roundabouts in three centres. Using a dataset that contains pedestrian, cyclist and motor vehicle flows, approach and circulating speeds and sight distances an analysis was carried out for a number of crash types and new crash relationships established. It will be shown that safety benefits can be achieved by a more European based design philosophy. Introduction New Zealand has a large number of roundabouts, which have been installed over a number of decades. Over the decades roundabout design standards have evolved considerably, and later designs are generally of higher standard. Many older roundabouts were installed prior to the widespread introduction of safety audits and therefore a number of deficiencies, which would be identified in more recent times, were not picked-up. There are a number of roundabouts still in operation that have fundamental deficiencies including inadequate deflection, two approach lanes but only one circulating lane, inconsistent visibility on different approaches, which leads to differential negotiation speeds, and poor camber/superelevation, which can cause problems for trucks.
