The Waimakariri District Council is one of the largest employers in the Waimakariri District and has become an employer of choice.
The Waimakariri District Council have committed to improving mobility and transport options for the community through increased cycling and walking opportunities.
The provision of safe and accessible facilities that meet the needs of the community underpins this commitment.
As a result of this, Ohoka Road has been selected as a route for improved cycling facilities between Robert Coup Road and Williams Street. We want to hear what you think.
Proposed option
Providing dedicated cycle lanes offers benefits to people on bikes, motorists and pedestrians.
The preferred option is to install cycle lanes along both sides of the road.
To enable the cycle lanes, the flush median would need to be removed and the current vehicle lane widths would be reduced from 3.4m to 3.2m wide. The reduction in road width may help to reduce vehicle speeds along Ohoka Road as it gives drivers a sense of a narrower road.
Some parking would be removed near intersections, pedestrian refuges and Kaiapoi High School’s entrance. This will create additional space and improve visibility where necessary.
Following feedback from the community, the detailed design of the cycle lanes will be finalised. Construction would be programmed during 2019.
