  • About Rodney District About Rodney District LTCCP 2009 - 2019 Volume 1
    243 SECTION 6: About Rodney District LTCCP 2009 - 2019 About Rodney District Volume 1 About Rodney District Council Rodney District was constituted as part of the 1989 local government reform, which resulted in the amalgamation of the former Helensville Borough with the former Rodney County. Rodney District appears to have taken its name from Cape Rodney, a headland at the north of the curve of Omaha Bay, 2 kilometres north-east of Leigh on the east coast of the district. The cape was named by Captain James Cook, on 24 November 1769, after the British admiral Sir George Bridges Rodney (1719-92). The district covers an area of 2,475 square kilometres and it had a population of 89,200 in 2006 (2006 census – Statistics New Zealand). Rodney District’s neighbours are Waitakere City in the west, North Shore City in the south and Kaipara District in the north. It comprises four wards: Western Ward – the south-western part of the district including the communities of Helensville and Kumeu/Huapai as well as the smaller settlements of Riverhead and Waimauku. Central Ward – the central Rodney area contains the communities of Coatesville and Waitoki. Eastern Ward – the Hibiscus Coast including the Whangaparaoa Peninsula, Orewa and Silverdale. Northern Ward – the northern part of the district, including the Warkworth, Wellsford and Snells Beach/Algies Bay communities and a number of smaller coastal and inland settlements. 244 The purpose of the Rodney District Council is to enable democratic local decision-making to promote the social, economic, environmental and cultural wellbeing of the district now and for the future.

    Learnings from a Programme Business Case Transport Networks for Growth Programme 24 February 2017 Gavin Smith, BCom, MEngSt, CPEng, MIPENZ Principal Transport Planner – Strategic Growth Initiatives Auckland Transport [email protected] Craig Mitchell, BE(Hons), IntPE(NZ), CPEng, MIPENZ Principal Transport Planner – Highways and Network Operations NZ Transport Agency [email protected] Abstract Auckland is expected to grow by up to 1 million people by 20431. It is anticipated that 60-70% of this growth will occur within existing urban areas, with the remainder in future growth areas. Approximately 15,000 hectares of future growth is land that has been identified in the Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan (Operative in part) to accommodate this. The Business Case approach was used to investigate a future transport network in Auckland’s future growth areas, and deliver the planning and investment outcomes needed. By tailoring the Business Case approach the process ensured that a consistent regional approach was applied at a local level and provided enough detail and flexibility to respond to immediate and on-going development pressures within each growth area. 1 Statistics NZ high growth projections, 2013 Learnings from a Programme Business Case G.Smith, C.Mitchell Page 1 Background The Transport Networks for Growth project (previously known as Transport for Future Urban Growth) was completed in an eight month period in 2016 and is the largest and most complex Programme Business Case completed in New Zealand. The Programme Business Case identified a $7.6 billion regional programme (the Programme) covering four geographical areas (Warkworth, North, North West, South) comprising some 15,000 hectares of future growth areas land.

  • Discovering the Hindrance of Walking and Cycling in Auckland’S Urban Form
    DISCOVERING THE HINDRANCE OF WALKING AND CYCLING IN AUCKLAND’S URBAN FORM. MEYER NEESON A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Urban Design at the University of Auckland, 2020. Abstract Active transport is a fundamental element in a city’s movement network that promotes a sustainable and resilient urban future, yet can only be viable in an urban setting that supports small-scale infrastructure with appropriate street environments. The 1950’s planning regimes have been dominant within Auckland’s transport development with perpetuated traditional aims of increased efficiency and high level infrastructure which enables travel in the comfort of a private vehicle. Attitudes have formulated the urban fabric through funding and investment intervention which resulted in a strong motorway network and low density, sprawling residential suburbs. Psychological public response to this environment is reflected in the heavy reliance on the private vehicle and low rates of walking and cycling. Although Auckland’s transport framework identifies the need for walking and cycling to actively form a strand of Auckland’s transport network, institutional and intellectual embedded ideas of the 1950’s prevent implementation on the ground. The failure of Auckland’s urban form was highlighted in the period of the Covid-19; post lockdown the public reverted back to old transport habits when restrictions were lifted. This pandemic put our city in the spotlight to identify its shortfalls and the urgent need to support a resilient future. Therefore, this research aims to discover the inherent infrastructure and funding barriers that hinder the growth of walking and cycling as a transport method in Auckland.
