Allendale Road, Mount Albert - Installation of Two Speed Bumps

About the project

We are proposing the installation of two additional speed bumps on Allendale Road.

We’ve heard from both the community and the Albert-Eden Local Board about Allendale Road being used as a shortcut route for motorists to avoid Mount Albert Town Centre. This has led to increased traffic and raised safety concerns in the area.

Currently, Allendale Road has six speed bumps. The proposed two new bumps will be placed in areas where there is a noticeable gap between existing ones, helping to maintain consistent traffic calming along the road. These locations have been selected because there are existing streetlights nearby, ensuring the speed bumps will be well-lit and meet industry standards.
