  • An Uphill Battle. Which Street Really Is the World's Steepest?
    An uphill battle Which street really is the world’s steepest – Ffordd Pen Llech or Baldwin Street? Report prepared by Toby Peter Stoff (B Surv, MNZIS, MCSNZ, RPSurv, Licensed Cadastral Surveyor), Summary This report provides a comparison of the current world’s steepest street: Ffordd Pen Llech in Harlech, Wales, with its predecessor: Baldwin Street in Dunedin, New Zealand. The analysis covers the three-dimensional shape of both streets, a review of the Guinness World Record parameters used to award the world record to Ffordd Pen Llech, and suggestions for future measurements of the world’s steepest street. This report finds that Baldwin Street is steeper than Ffordd Pen Llech by 5.2 per cent when the average of left-hand side, centreline and right-hand side gradients of the steepest 10-metre sections of both streets are compared. This report also finds that the centreline of Baldwin Street is 6.2 per cent steeper than Ffordd Pen Llech. This is largely due to the different shape of both streets. Baldwin Street is straight with uniform gradient across the width of the carriageway. Ffordd Pen Llech has many horizontal curves which all affect the road gradient. Our view is that a minor rule change is necessary to enable straight streets and curved streets to be assessed fairly. This can be achieved by requiring steepness to be measured at the centreline of the street. Measuring on the centreline: • is standard practice in the surveying and engineering professions • provides a reasonable approximation of average gradient over the full width • allows straight and curved streets to be assessed equally without using overly sophisticated measurement and analysis techniques.

  • The Dunedin Stadium a Community Controversy
    Unit: The Dunedin stadium A community controversy. Conceptual understandings • Communities are made up of a range of formal and informal groups • Within a community there are widely divergent views • There are formal and informal ways of making your views known • There are formal and informal channels through which to seek resolutions to community issues Curriculum achievement objectives Social sciences, Level 4: Understand how formal and informal groups make decisions that impact on communities Social sciences, Level 5: Understand how economic decisions impact on people, communities and nations Focus of learning Through this unit, students come to understand how community decisions are made and how community issues can be resolved. As well as gaining a better understanding of formal and informal groups involved in community decision-making, they can come to appreciate that within and between groups there can be a wide range of perspectives and ways in which individual and group voices can raise and resolve their concerns. They will also gain an understanding of what individual, community and national confl ict resolution strategies and channels are available. It is hoped that this understanding will encourage students to engage in wider school and community decision-making.

It will go on record as one of the most challenging experiences for Dunedin Venues and unfortunately, this organisation was not alone in its predicament. Planning for the 2019-20 financial year began positively with strong bookings across all business, concert, sporting and community events. Dunedin Venues underwent a brand refresh with a new look bringing more alignment with the city’s gothic branding and more representative of its focus. The business events market went from strength to strength making a significant contribution to the Dunedin economy. This year Dunedin Venues hosted 4,040 delegates who attended 21 multi-day conferences at the Dunedin Centre.
