  • TAKING the HIGH ROAD: Retrofitting Amenity Onto Urban Arterial Roads by PAUL DEY a 120-Point Thesis Submitted to the Victori
    TAKING THE HIGH ROAD: Retrofitting amenity onto urban arterial roads BY PAUL DEY A 120-point thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture (Professional) Victoria University of Wellington School of Architecture 2017 i How might New Zealand’s urban arterial roads be architecturally retrofitted with improved amenity values to counteract the negative environmental and social effects of high-capacity traffic infrastructure? ii ABSTRACT Amenity values on urban arterial roads are fraught. This is largely due to the traditional traffic capacity versus amenity trade-off. This trade-off implies that high-capacity roads must be inherently deficient in amenity due to issues of air quality, noise nuisance and the physical barrier of streams of traffic. However, a more nuanced position – and one adopted by this thesis - is that arterial roads can be both busy thoroughfares and active, enjoyable destinations. This design-led research explores retrofitting amenity values onto existing arterial roads, creating new spaces and improving qualities of a system not originally constructed with amenity in mind. Cuba Street in Lower Hutt is a regionally significant connector intended for future densified development. In addition to the current link function, this road needs to become more attractive as a destination and address. Consideration at the urban scale encourages broad, strategic planning to support amenity holistically. This urban planning addresses topics like desirable densification, transit- oriented development, walkable centres and how these affect the arterial road condition. In moving from urban-scaled to architectural design, the detailed implementation of the greater policies is tested.

  • Hutt Valley) Public Transport Service Review Project Brief
    Attachment 1 to Report 13.124 Page 1 of 2 Eastern Area (Hutt Valley) Public Transport Service Review Project Brief The purpose of an area-wide service review is to deliver an effective and efficient integrated public transport network. Area-wide reviews provide an opportunity to maximise the effectiveness and efficiency of the passenger transport network by allowing consideration of the interaction between all public transport services within a large geographical area. The reviews are undertaken with the intention there will be no additional cost to the ratepayer. They take a short to medium term view, focusing on operational and efficiency improvements to the network. Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) has an ongoing programme of area-wide reviews, which is in accordance with policies laid out in the Wellington Regional Public Transport Plan 2011-2021(RPTP). The RPTP requires regular service reviews to be carried out to ensure public transport services operate effectively and efficiently as part of an integrated public transport network. Regular service reviews provide an opportunity to consider the extent to which public transport services meet customer demand. Key considerations when undertaking service reviews are to ensure value for money and to balance service levels with demand. The programme of area-wide service reviews contained within the RPTP indicated that a Hutt Valley area wide review of public transport services would be undertaken across the financial years 2012/13 and 2013/14. The Hutt Valley Public Transport Service Review will include all urban bus, rail and ferry services in Upper and Lower Hutt, and will also give consideration to east-west links between Porirua and the Hutt Valley.

    Report 14.547 Date 23 January 2015 File TD/03/15/07 Committee Strategy and Policy Committee Author Matthew Lear, Team Leader, Network Service Design & Bus & Ferry Infrastructure Hutt Valley Public Transport Review 1. Purpose To approve the recommendations from the Hutt Valley Public Transport Review and agree that the review is substantively complete. The only outstanding items relate to operational matters which are required to implement the recommendations. 2. Background Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) has undertaken a review of public transport services within the Hutt Valley. The review began under the remit of the Wellington Regional Public Transport Plan 2011-2021 which required regular service reviews to be carried out to ensure public transport services operate effectively and efficiently as part of an integrated public transport network. The Business Case for the review was approved by the Economic Wellbeing Committee on 26 March 2013 (Report 13.124). Report 13.124 detailed the following points to be addressed as part of the review scope: • bus, train, and ferry connectivity • patronage, capacity, and demand • changes in travel patterns • changes in population catchments and land development • span of service hours • frequency of services; and • the potential for east-west links. 1416263-V4 PAGE 1 OF 16 The review assumptions were about fine tuning current services to provide an improved level of service for customers, rather than a need for a fundamental redesign of the current network. 3. Project Timeline The review has met the planned timeline. The table below details the project timeline and the milestones achieved: Milestone Date Status 1.

  • Public Transport Projects to 2004
    Report 01.814 28 November 2001 File: TP/1/4/1 [01.814_djw] Report to the Passenger Transport Committee From Dr D J Watson, Division Manager Transport Progress on Implementing the Public Transport Projects of the RLTS – December 2001 1. Purpose To inform the Committee of progress implementing the public transport projects of the RLTS. To propose that the Passenger Transport Committee report to the next RLTC on its progress in implementing the RLTS. 2. Background The RLTS is the Region’s land transport strategy and is adopted by the Council. The Passenger Transport Committee is tasked with implementing the strategy commensurate with the financial constraints set down in the Council’s long term Financial Strategy. Attachment 1 is an example of an RLTS, Public Transport Progress Report presented to the RLTC in the last triennium. The remainder of this current report follows that example and is an update on progress. 3. Report on the progress made by the Public Transport Committee of the Wellington Regional Council in implementing the Public Transport Projects of the Wellington Regional Land Transport Strategy 1999-2004 (a) Western Corridor (Otaki to Wellington) Public Transport Projects to 2004 − Upgrade the Paraparaumu railway station building 2 − Build a new railway station at Raumati − Extend the urban electric rail service to Waikanae − Increase weekday urban rail service frequency from the Kapiti Coast to Wellington to 15 minutes in peak period and 30 minutes in off peak − Provide additional commuter car and cycle parks at major railway stations − Increase rail feeder services to match the increase in urban rail frequency The projects that require capital investment and hence could only be funded through a medium to long term service agreement remain stalled.
