Detailed information about the project SECTION 1: Suffolk Reserve The first section of the cycleway goes through Suffolk Reserve from Takau Street, joining the northern edge of Ian McKinnon Drive under the Newton Road Bridge. Newton Road on-ramp This section of the cycleway is approximately 200m long and is proposed to be a 3m wide 1.8m handrail concrete path that is shared by pedestrians and width people on bikes. The route of the path through the reserve is currently indicative until further onsite investigation works are completed.

The cycleway will use one of the existing city bound traffic lanes heading up Ian McKinnon Drive towards Upper Queen Street. To ensure there are still two traffic lanes in this direction, one of the southbound traffic lanes (heading out of the CBD towards Dominion Road) will be removed for the entire length of the cycleway. PROPOSED OPTION A: Looking towards Upper Queen St Key features of Option A are: • A 3m wide two-way cycleway with 0.5m wide raised island providing separation from the traffic lane (similar to Beach Road). • Two city bound traffic lanes. • One south bound traffic lane.

  • Business Unit Report Template
    Board Meeting | 05 December 2017 Agenda Item no.10. Open Session Business Report Recommendation: That the Chief Executive’s report be received. Prepared by: David Warburton, Chief Executive Farewell and Acknowledgements As this is the last Board meeting in my tenure as Chief Executive, I wish to take the opportunity to make some passing comments and acknowledgements. It is not possible, nor appropriate, to name individuals who have contributed so much to the organisation, and Auckland as a whole over the past seven years. Suffice to say the staff of this organisation, past and present, can be justifiably proud of where we have come from and what we have achieved. Those who were not here when the organisation first came into being on 1 November 2010 will find it hard to imagine what things were like – over the space of 12 months the Auckland Local Government Reforms delivered the largest restructure in Australasian corporate history. Eight organisations – each with their own distinct policies, procedures and cultures were brought together against a backdrop of community and political distrust of the “super city” and the effect on staff morale cannot be underestimated. In responding to the Chairman’s question on the induction programme for the new Chief Executive, there was no precedent. In my case there was no organisation to be inducted into. At that time people asked me what my biggest worries were: the first was that our staff would be paid correctly and secondly our suppliers. Everybody worked incredibly hard just to ensure the basics were done and the organisation didn’t fall apart.

  • March 2017 Board Report
    Board Meeting | 28 March 2017 Agenda Item no. 10 Open Session Business Report Recommendation: That the Chief Executive’s report be received. Prepared by: David Warburton, Chief Executive Corporate AT rises to the challenge as the flood closes roads The significant rain storm which hit Auckland over 8 -12 March required concerted effort and integrated approach by staff, contractors and other key stakeholders such as civil defence. The combination of frontal rain and localised intense bursts resulted in significant damage in Waiheke and New Lynn in particular. The situation was made worse by the slow progress of the storm over about five days. During the weekend alone staff and contractors dealt with a 100% increase in normal weekend call outs. By all measures it was an extreme event. On average across the urban area there was 200mm of rainfall and the most was 366mm – almost a third of the annual amount. Staff from right across the organisation (Road Corridor Maintenance, ATOC, Communications and Media, etc) .worked extremely long hours and received thanks and commendation from the mayor, Police and Civil Defence. This dedication is exemplified by one AT staff member on Waiheke who, despite extensive flood damage to her own home spent many hours managing and coordinating responses across the island. The damage and clean-up left in the wake of the storm is extensive and staff and contractors are still clearing and repairing broken bridges, washouts, slips, scoured roads, and walkways. While most roads are now open to vehicles, restricted lanes and remedial work will be going on for months.
