LGWM – Strategic Context
LGWM – Strategic Context 9 November 2017 Executive Summary Purpose Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) is a joint initiative by Wellington City Council, Greater Wellington Regional Council and the New Zealand Transport Agency (the Transport Agency). LGWM is investigating the merits of investing in the transport system to improve outcomes for Wellington, with a focus on the area from Ngauranga to the airport, including the central city. This paper outlines the transport, land use and other contexts within which the LGWM programme is set. It also describes the range of strategic transport improvements being progressed or planned across the region that are not within the scope of the LGWM programme but are important complementary initiatives. Background Our region is growing, with between 100,000 and 150,000 more people expected to live here 30 years from now. More than half will live in Wellington City, and the fastest growing areas will be in and around the central city. Wellington City is expected to remain the key regional economic centre, with 80% of the region’s employment growth. Much of the peak travel demand by commuters will likely continue to be on corridors and routes to and from central Wellington. Wellington’s compact form supports an effective public transport network and high public transport use. However, overall transport capacity is constrained by narrow transport corridors that increase conflict between transport modes. Limited capacity and connections between local roads and arterial routes beyond the CBD also make the transport network vulnerable to disruptions. A number of critical lifeline locations are situated in the LGWM project area, including Wellington Regional Hospital and Wellington International Airport. -

Hearing Transcript Day 21.Pdf
TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS BOARD OF INQUIRY MacKays to Peka Peka Expressway Proposal HEARING at KAPITI COAST on 10 JANUARY 2013 BOARD OF INQUIRY: Sir John Hansen (Chairperson) Environment Commissioner David Bunting (Board Member) Ms Glenice Paine (Board Member) Mr Mark Apeldoorn (Board Member) Page 1897 [9.31 am] CHAIRPERSON: Thank you. Just before we call Mr Gross and Mr Gray, 5 Commissioner Bunting has indicated that he worked in the same organisation as Mr Gray many years ago. He identified that to the Board beforehand and, just for the record, we are satisfied there is no conflict of interest involved. So Mr Gross and Mr Gray if you would come forward please. 10 MR GROSS: Sir John, commissioners, my name is Michael Gross, I am currently chairperson of the Wellington District of the New Zealand Automobile Association. I have a background in local government, I chaired various local, regional and national bodies of local government 15 during the 1980s and 1990s and was spokesman for the New Zealand Local Government Association on transport issues at that time. After I exited local government in 1995 I was the establishment chair of the Transfund board and chaired that organisation for seven of its 20 nine years until policy changes saw it re-amalgamated with the Safety Authority and later, of course, morphed into the New Zealand Transport Agency as we have today. I have with me Mr Alex Gray who is an engineer who has spent a 25 career in major infrastructure projects around the Wellington region and he will largely present our submission. -

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. -

Dry for Northern North Island, Wet for Much of South Island
New Zealand Climate Summary: September 2020 Issued: 6 October 2020 New Dry for northern North Island, wet for much of South Island Rainfall Rainfall was well below normal (<50% of normal) for much of Northland, Auckland, Coromandel Peninsula, and Bay of Plenty. Below normal rainfall (50-79% of normal) was observed in much of Waikato, East Cape, Gisborne and coastal parts of northern Taranaki. Above normal (120-149% of normal) or well above normal (>149% of normal) rainfall was observed in much of the South Island and the southern North Island including Southland, western and central Otago, north Canterbury, the northern West Coast, Wellington, Wairarapa, the Kapiti Coast and Manawatu- Whanganui. Rainfall was typically below normal for easternmost parts of the South Island from Christchurch to Dunedin. Temperature Temperatures were near average (±0.50°C of average) for most of the country. Temperatures were above average (0.51°C to 1.2°C above average) in eastern parts of Otago, Canterbury, Hawke’s Bay and Gisborne, as well as northern parts of Tasman and Marlborough. Soil Moisture As of 1 October, soil moisture was lower than normal for eastern parts of Otago and Canterbury from Dunedin to Christchurch, as well as parts of Northland, Auckland, coastal Bay of Plenty and East Cape. Soil moisture was considerably lower than normal in North Otago and South Canterbury – these areas were categorised as “Dry” or “Very Dry” according to NIWA’s New Zealand Drought Index.

Stormwater Infrastructure
Assessment of Water and Sanitary Services 2005 x Long Term Council Community Plan x Bush and Stream Restoration Plan 2001 x Asset Management Plan. 6.3 Stormwater Infrastructure 6.3.1 Catchments A catchment is defined by topography. A main stream and tributaries join together in the catchment to form a water system which drains through a single outlet into the harbour or south coast. Council catchments are generally based upon actual drainage characteristics, but are also affected by management boundaries. The more urbanised eastern side of the Wellington region has been broken up into 42 individual catchments ranging in size and elevation from rural Kaiwharawhara (1917 ha, 420m) to smaller urban catchments such as Thorndon (12 ha, sea level). The rural western region has not been subdivided into catchments at this time. Figure 9 shows the main stormwater catchments. All these catchments contain a multitude of small watercourses, streams and piped stormwater infrastructure. The rural streams are generally narrow and restricted channels with over hanging vegetation, compared to the channelised urban streams. Streams have an average grade of 7.25% throughout the region, representing the steep topography associated with most of the Wellington catchments. Wellington stormwater from these catchments is discharged directly into the City’s streams, harbour and south coast. Eleven of the major discharges to the sea are currently consented under the RMA 1991. The consents for the discharge of wastewater-contaminated stormwater to the coastal marine area were issued in 1994 and require Council to carry out improvement works by 2013. The works are dependent on the individual consent conditions. -

What we asked The Golden Mile Project From June to August 2020 we asked Wellingtonians to let us know what that they liked or didn’t like about each concept and why. We also asked people to tell us The Golden Mile project is part of the Let’s Get Wellington Moving programme. The which concept they preferred for the different sections of the Golden Mile, as we vision for the project is “connecting people across the central city with a reliable understand that each street that makes up the Golden Mile is different, and a public transport system that is in balance with an attractive pedestrian environment”. -
