    Summary Report LET’S GET WELLINGTON MOVING This report presents summary findings of the Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) November and December 2017 public engagement. February 2018 Report prepared by Global Research Ltd Report By Global Research Ltd Foreword by Let’s Get Wellington Moving Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) is a joint initiative between Wellington City Council, Greater Wellington Regional Council, and the New Zealand Transport Agency. We’re working with the people of Wellington to develop a transport system that improves how the city looks, feels, and functions. Our focus is the area from Ngauranga to the airport, including the Wellington Urban Motorway and connections to the central city, port, hospital, and the eastern and southern suburbs. OUR WORK SO FAR In 2016 we talked with people around the region to learn what people like and dislike about Wellington and how they get around the city. Using feedback from more than 10,000 people, we developed a set of urban design and transport priniciples to guide our work. We then collected extensive transport data, and used the principles and ideas from the public to develop scenarios to improve Wellington’s transport and support the city’s growth. THIS REPORT In November and December 2017, we released four scenarios for Wellington’s transport future and promoted these in a region-wide public engagement programme. The scenarios were presented in the document Have Your Say…on Let’s Get Wellington Moving and on the website yourvoice.getwellymoving.co.nz. As a result, LGWM received 1,994 online and hardcopy-form responses, 147 letter/report style responses (including 55 from stakeholder groups), and 35 Facebook posts.

  • Section 32 Report Proposed District Plan Change 45 Section 32 Report
    SECTION 32 REPORT PROPOSED DISTRICT PLAN CHANGE 45 SECTION 32 REPORT PROPOSED DISTRICT PLAN CHANGE 45 URBAN DEVELOPMENT AREA AND STRUCTURE PLANS Introduction Before a proposed District Plan change is publicly notified the Council is required under section 32 of the Resource Management Act 1991 (the Act) to carry out an evaluation of the proposed change and prepare a report. As prescribed in section 32 of the Act: An evaluation must examine: (a) the extent to which each objective is the most appropriate way to achieve the purpose of the Act; and (b) whether, having regard to their efficiency and effectiveness, the policies, rules, or other methods are the most appropriate for achieving the objectives. An evaluation must also take into account: (a) the benefits and costs of policies, rules, or other methods; and (b) the risk of acting or not acting if there is uncertain or insufficient information about the subject matter of the policies, rules or other methods. Benefits and costs are defined as including benefits and costs of any kind, whether monetary or non-monetary. A report must be prepared summarising the evaluation and giving reasons for the evaluation. The report must be available for public inspection at the time the proposed change is publicly notified. Background The land between Johnsonville and Tawa forms part of the natural land corridor that provides one of the two main access routes to and from the city. The recent history of the area has been one of progressive urbanisation. Pastoral farming has continued to decline and has been replaced, in the main, by suburban residential development.

  • Petone to Grenada Link Road
    Attachment 1 to Report 14.190 Petone to Grenada Link Road Petone to Grenada Issue 01 Link Road February 2014 We are considering a potential new transport link between Tawa/Porirua and the Hutt Valley to improve travel on two of Wellington’s main highways and to resolve some critical issues that affect both day-to-day travel and our ability to manage major events. The Petone to Grenada Link Road (Link Road) has been talked about N for many years. It’s been investigated most recently as part of the Ngauranga Triangle Strategy Study and included in Pauatahanui the 2011 Hutt Corridor Plan. The diagram on this page shows the existing route travelled and the potential new route options being considered. Over the past year we have been looking Porirua at the benefits of the Link Road more closely. Not only does it have the ability B to reduce congestion on State Highway 2 A (SH2) and State Highway 1 (SH1), it also has the ability to: • Make peak morning journeys between the Hutt and Porirua around 10 minutes faster and 7km shorter Tawa C Grenada • Provide another route to/from the North Hutt Valley when SH2 is blocked or Wellington City when SH1 is blocked Existing State Highways F • Support better public transport Horokiwi Current Route Churton Park access (particularly for buses) Proposed new Link Road options to/from Wellington, Porirua and Proposed Transmission Gully Route Newlands the Hutt Valley by improving traffic D Petone Existing Local Roads flow and creating the opportunity for A Proposed Takapu Interchange new routes B Proposed Kenepuru Interchange C Tawa Interchange • Support more walking and cycling E D Petone Interchange opportunities, particularly if E Ngauranga Interchange combined with the Wellington to F Grenada Interchange Hutt Valley Walking and Cycling Link • Make travel times on SH1 and SH2 more reliable a key consideration.

    The 1855 Wairarapa Earthquake Symposium 150 years of thinking about magnitude 8+ earthquakes and seismic hazard in New Zealand 8–10 September 2005 Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa Proceedings Volume Compiled by John Townend, Rob Langridge, and Andrew Jones The papers collated in this volume have been reformatted, where necessary, from the authors’ originals, but have not otherwise been edited. The views expressed in these papers are those of the respective authors. The 1855 Wairarapa Earthquake Symposium — Proceedings Volume Published by Greater Wellington Regional Council Greater Wellington Publication Number: GW/RINV-T-05/205 ISBN: 0-909016-87-9 September 2005 PREFACE John Townend, Organising Committee Chair Victoria University of Wellington, PO Box 600, Wellington ([email protected]) The 2004 Sumatra–Andaman earthquake and tsunami remind us of the brutal levels of destruction that a large earthquake can wreak. This symposium, held to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the 1855 Wairarapa earthquake, is intended to facilitate discussion between people working on different facets of the problem of understanding and anticipating earthquakes in New Zealand. During planning for this event, the invited speakers were asked to address one or more of four key themes: what happened then; what has happened since; what is happening now; and where should we focus future efforts? As the abstracts in this volume attest, the significance of the 1855 Wairarapa earthquake lies not simply in the dramatic scale of its immediate geological and social effects, but in the much longer-term, ongoing influence it has exerted on research and practice in New Zealand science, engineering, and civil defence and emergency management planning.
