It also includes 1 widening of SH1 between Mt Wellington Interchange and the Princes Street Interchange with a new lane in each direction, (refer attached sketch). 1 • To put the location in context • Geographically, the Project is located at the narrowest isthmus of New Zealand, and approximately in the centre of the Auckland urban area. • It is bound on the west by the Manukau Harbour and the east by the Tāmaki River. • The geography of the area has shaped land use, economic activity and the movement/transmission of goods and utilities through this area over time. • Just like in pre European times. It is a key industrial, transport and 2 logistics hub • The GDP and jobs generated by the area are significant and in 2012, the direct Project area accounted for approximately $4.7 billion of output, or 7.5% of Auckland’s total GDP. • The area also represents a significant proportion of the city’s employment and it is one of Auckland’s principal manufacturing locations, accounting for 17.9% Auckland’s, and 5.9% of New Zealand’s manufacturing jobs.

  • Cycling Programme Business Case
    Board Meeting| 01 August 2017 Agenda item no. 11.4 Closed Session CONFIDENTIAL Cycling Programme Business Case Recommendation That the Board: i. Endorse the recommended strategic direction for future investment in cycling in Auckland, the funding of which will be subject to prioritisation through the Integrated Transport Programme (ITP). Executive summary 1 There is a significant opportunity for cycling to play a more substantial role in contributing to a more effective transport system for Auckland. During the programme period, transport demands will continue to grow strongly alongside population and employment across the region, placing increasing pressure on congested networks and, in particular, on access to the city centre. 2 We analysed a range of options to identify which package would most effectively deliver the benefits and objectives of the programme, carried out economic modelling and conducted extensive engagement to arrive at a preferred programme of investment. 3 This programme business case recommends an investment of $635m in cycling over the period 2018-2028 to most effectively meet the objectives of the programme. This would provide benefits of $1.9 to $4.6 for every $1 invested, and would deliver 150km of new cycleways linking to key activity centres and maximising access to public transport. The investment would see an increase in modal share of trips to work for cycling from 1 per cent to 4 per cent across the Auckland region. Previous deliberations 4 This item was considered by the Customer Focus Committee on 10 July 2017 and feedback has been incorporated into this report. The updated presentation is attached to this report.

  • AGM and Annual Report 30 September 2010
    AGM and Annual Report 30 September 2010 Cycle Action Auckland is an incorporated registered charity with the objective of promoting cycling as a non-congesting, non-polluting, energy-efficient and health-promoting form of transport for the Auckland region. Cycle Action is affiliated to Cycling Advocates’ Network (CAN), a national voice for cyclists. 5 2 Hepburn St, Freemans Bay PO Box 91-301, Auckland www.caa.org.nz It has been another busy and productive year for Cycle Action. I invite you to spend some time going through the summary of activities and achievements listed below. I can guarantee that you, a family member or a colleague is already enjoying the benefits of the work undertaken by Cycle Action. The name of the organisation has never been a better fit. There has been a whole lot of action going on. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. A lot of the projects that Cycle Action has been involved in this year are long term and on-going projects. The benefits of these projects are yet to be realised but will be coming on stream in the near future. The establishment and building of relationships with a wide variety of people and organisations is also starting to pay huge dividends. More and more, we are seeing cycling becoming mainstream. It's what ordinary people do. There may be an item on the list that particularly catches your eye or maybe you see a glaring omission. Cycle Action is a voluntary group that relies on the skills and efforts of a bunch of enthusiastic individuals.

  • East-West Link Bike AKL Submission March 2017
    Bike Auckland Barbara Cuthbert (Chair) [email protected] Mobile: 027412582 2A St Aubyn Street Devonport Auckland 0624 Bike Auckland submission on East West Link proposal Bike Auckland Incorporated is a registered charity aiming to make Auckland safer and more attractive for people wanting to ride bicycles, whether for recreation or transport. Bike Auckland is asking the EPA / Board of Inquiry to decline the proposal for the East West Link proposal. Alternatively, should the proposal be granted, we ask the Board to modify various aspects of the proposal via design changes agreed with the applicant or via conditions of consent. Reasons we seek this decision Bike Auckland has a number of significant concerns about the proposal, which make us unable to support it. This is despite good working relationships with NZTA and Auckland Transport, and the fact that some aspects of the proposal will be very positive, including for cycling. Key concerns which we consider are not mitigated (and in some case are not able to be mitigated without changing basic proposal), include: Concern 1: Induced demand: The proposal creates a massive capacity increase for motor vehicle traffic, and in good part is an explicit duplication / alternative for an existing route (the Neilson Street / Church Street connection between SH20 and SH1). Such proposals are generally sold as having benefits for other routes (local streets) through reduced traffic and less congestion. However, these benefits - where they do occur - are generally lost very quickly again (often within a few years). This is due to induced demand, i.e. added new driving due to increased capacity for the driving mode.
