Ponsonby Road - Auckland Transport plans to ruin Ponsonby Road and environs.
Auckland Transport is ruining Ponsonby Road.
We the undersigned, request that the consultation process currently underway by Auckland Transport - regarding Ponsonby Road be recalled, redesigned and delivered in a much more appropriate and statistically valid manner.
Local residents, business owners, families and visitors who enjoy both Ponsonby Road and the local community request that Auckland Transport (AT) ceases the "consultation process" currently underway.
The current "consultation" process is grossly inappropriate, rushed, difficult to respond to - and will not provide a quality range of valid feedback.
The Auckland Transport Flyer - posted on 03 December 2020 with a demand that feedback is submitted online by 06 December 2020, (just four days) is far too hasty, provides inappropriate timelines and will not fairly represent the views of the majority.
The submission process is confusing and unnecessarily complex, and includes a phone number (09)3666400 for feedback that is not answered during the weekend (two of the four days available for responses) by skilled researchers.
The residents of St Heliers managed to stop AT and thereby ensure that the quality of life they enjoy was not destroyed by Auckland Transport - after AT proceeded with their own plans to “improve" (read "Ruin") West Lynn, Karangahape Road and Mt Albert.
We require that Auckland Transport engage more closely with the residents of Ponsonby, St Mary’s Bay, Freemans Bay, Herne Bay, Westmere and Grey Lynn and interested parties - through a series of publicly notified community meetings and meaningful research that ensures the views of ALL interested parties are requested, understood and accepted.
Speed Calming measures are not needed in side roads, or at stop signs, no more unused cycleways on main thoroughfares are needed, no more "mini traffic islands" are warranted and more free parking is required for businesses to thrive so that the community can then enjoy Ponsonby Road and the rest of the local suburbs - without any further interference from Auckland Transport and Auckland Council.
Auckland Transport – Stop imposing your own views on Ponsonby!

New Zealand Flower Farmers deserve fairer treatment and consideration. Support contactless deliveries for cut flowers through level 3 and 4 Delta lockdown.
Our local cut flower growing industry is sinking fast! From small family farms to larger operations, all have been forced to destroy a heartbreaking amount of their beautiful blooms. Level 4 Delta has left the cut flower farming community at a breaking point - financially, physically and emotionally - even though there are many ways to distribute their flowers safely. Listen to Ella Stewarts report on our industry with Aila and Christy and the way this has affected their production and a possi

Re-establishing the Waikiwi BMX Track
Myers Reserve in North Invercargill Waikiwi features some BMX ramps and the skeletons of an old BMX Track. The track was used and enjoyed by kids around the area in the 80's and 90's. Unfortunately over time it has grown grass and the old ramps need some repairs. The Invercargill City Council have not had a lot of Public interest or community support for getting this BMX track back up and running. I know it was loved by many and could be enjoyed my many kids and families in the future if it wa

Mandeville Path between McHughes and No. 10 Roads
In our community, we have the gorgeous Mandeville Village and well-supported Swannanoa School. Unfortunately, bike or walking access to both these sites is not particularly safe or enticing due to the often unkempt and difficult-to-bike-on grass verge between McHughes Road and No 10 Road - particularly for children/ families in the wet winter months. I have secured an opportunity to speak to Council next Thursday to request consideration of this project in their upcoming Draft Long Term Plan 202
