Formalising parking in Ormiston neighbourhood

Project overview

As Ormiston continues to grow, we’re making changes to improve safety and accessibility on our neighbourhood streets. Community feedback has highlighted issues with visibility and pedestrian access due to vehicles parked too close to intersections.

Why we're making changes:

Many streets in Ormiston are narrow, and parked vehicles near intersections are:

Blocking driver visibility
Obstructing pedestrian crossing points
Creating safety risks, especially for children walking to schools, parks, and shops

What’s changing

To improve safety, broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) will be painted at selected intersections. These markings reinforce existing rules under the NZ Road Code and help keep roads clear and safe.

Broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) will be installed at the following locations:

Street Name	Street Name
Arronmore Drive	Oakhurst Avenue
Asters Avenue	Riviera Drive
Brookview Drive	Rohi Place
Cahir Drive	Shandon Street
Clady Drive	Springside Drive
Coolaghy Drive	Sunshine Lane
Creeve Place	Sycamore Street
Dromoland Drive	Geranium Avenue
Flat Bush School Road	Gortnest Place
Killarney Drive	Laquinta Lane
Louis Braille Lane
