About the project

We’ve received a request to provide a short-term parking option on Esplanade Road. AT has taken this request into consideration and are proposing to convert two of the P120 parking spaces into a P10 loading zone, outside 145 Mt Eden Road on Esplanade Road.

What’s currently in place

• P120 parking restriction between 8am-6pm, Monday to Friday.

What we’re proposing

• Convert two P120 parking spaces to P10 Loading Zone between 8am-6pm, Monday to Sunday.

• Makes it easier for you to find short term parking for local businesses
• Ensures fairness with the high demand in this area
• Supports rubbish collection by giving trucks a place to stop briefly while servicing the area
• Makes it easier for NZ Post to stop nearby to collect mail from the local post box
• Helps courier drivers stop safely for a short time while picking up parcels from local businesses
