Consultation has concluded

About the project

We are proposing changes on local roads around Elim Christian College to help students cross the road safely, slow down drivers and ease congestion.

On Mclean Street we propose to install a new zebra crossing outside the school gate and a new speed hump at the northern end of the road. At the southern of the road, we propose to remove the speed chicane. This will open the road to two lanes and help reduce congestion during school pick up and drop off times. The existing speed hump will remain but be upgraded. We also propose to install a new speed hump on Allendale Road to help reduce speeds.

These changes are part of a bigger transport plan

Auckland Transport, local boards and ward councillors are working together to prioritise and address local road safety concerns. This project is funded by the Local Board Transport Capital Fund Programme.

This programme uses funding within Auckland Transport’s annual budget to deliver on Local Board initiatives for local areas and communities

What we are proposing

The changes in the proposal include:

  • Building a zebra crossing at #6 McLean Street, Mount Albert. Zebra crossings provide safer crossing facilities and gives priority to pedestrians.
  • Installing a speed hump at #10 McLean Street and #58 Allendale Road to guide drivers to slow down.
  • Remove the existing chicanes and upgrade the speed hump at #2 McLean Street.
  • Painting broken yellow lines. These improvements would include removing 21 on-street parking spaces near the zebra crossing. We understand that removing parking spaces can be inconvenient, so we have minimised the removal while maintaining good lines of sight and access.
  • New tactile pavers. These are yellow guidance paving markers to help people to find their way to crossings and safely across roads.
  • New traffic signs and streetlights to alert vehicles as they approach the speed bumps.

Benefits and impacts

We want to work with you to deliver safer roads in your neighbourhood. These changes would:

  • Make it safer and easier for pedestrians to cross the road.
  • Improve visibility between motorists approaching the zebra crossing.
  • Make the road work better doe everyone using it.
  • Slow motorists to a safer speed.

What we want your feedback on

We are seeking feedback from nearby residents and businesses on our proposal to install a zebra crossing outside Elim Christian College, upgrade #2 McLean St speed humps, and install two new speed humps on #10 McLean Street and #58 Allendale Road, Mount Albert.
