Project Update (as of 14 May 2025)
The construction, initially set between November- December 2024, has been delayed to July/August 2025 due to funding issues.
We’ll keep the community updated when the budget and construction are finalised.
About the project
We’re improving footpath safety on Annison Avenue in Glen Eden to provide safe, convenient and well-connected walking and cycling options in your community.
Your street has been selected as one of our focus areas to support more sustainable transport options including better walking and cycling facilities and access to public transport. This project is funded by the Auckland Council Climate Action Transport Targeted Rate (CATTR) which aims to reduce transport emissions in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
The changes we're making between November -December 2024
Building a new footpath on the northern side of Annison Avenue between Withers Road and Coey Place. We will need to regrade the new grass berm, level the soil and move two trees.
Paint no stopping at all times (broken yellow lines) around the intersection of Coey Place and Annison Avenue. This clears access and helps with visibility into and out of Coey Place by preventing vehicles from parking at the entry and exit points of the street. This also makes it easier for drivers to see oncoming cars, cyclists and people walking or crossing the road.
Install yellow tactile pavers at the crossing point of Coey Ave intersection to help vision impaired people safely cross the road.
Improve pram crossings at the intersection of Coey place and Annison Avenue. Better pram crossings promote accessibility and safety for parents, caregivers and anyone with mobility needs.
Paint new road markings and install a sign to indicate vehicle priority at the intersection.
Benefits to your neighbourhood
Footpaths make it safer for the community by separating motorists and traffic from people on foot.
Well-maintained footpaths are safer for people who walk and ride their bikes and scooters, reducing the risk of being hurt or injured.
More footpaths make it easier and stress-free for you and local children to move about your community, offering better connections to schools, parks, public transport and other local amenities.
Encouraging walking and cycling is good for the environment and good for your health. It helps reduce reliance on cars for local trips, decreasing traffic congestion and reducing our carbon emissions.
Pram crossings make it safer and more convenient for people pushing prams or strollers to cross roads. It has a small ramp at the curb level reducing the need to lift the pram which can be unsafe, especially when managing traffic. It helps ensure those with mobility needs can navigate crossings more easily.
What happens next
We will install these changes by July/August 2025.
Any change to the plan will be updated on this page.
