Proposed Vehicle Restrictions

 

Consultation on the proposal closed at 5.00 pm on 4 June 2010.
 

Papakura District Council is seeking public feedback on a proposal to implement a restriction on vehicles under 3500kg from entering specified areas of the District between the hours of 10pm and 5am daily unless the driver is able to show there is a legitimate purpose to them being in that location. The impetus for this proposal is to address illegal and antisocial behaviour associated with people congregating in vehicles generally within industrial areas outside of normal business hours.

 

The proposed areas for restrictions are:

  • Takanini Business Area – being Spartan Road, part of Oakleigh Ave, Westbrook Ave, Rawson Way, Rangi Road, Heb Place, Marphona Crescent and part of Takanini School Road.

  • Gatland Road

  • Unsealed section at the end of Old Wairoa Road

These restrictions are proposed as per clause 12 of the Papakura District Council Parking and Traffic Bylaw 2009. View maps of proposed areas:

Pukekiwiriki Reserve Management Plan

Consultation on the draft management plan for Papakura District’s iconic Pukekiwiriki Reserve has now closed.

The plan recognises the site’s cultural, archaeological and geological significance to the region and to Iwi Māori of Papakura District. It has been prepared with the guidance of the Kaitiaki group that advises the Council on matters affecting Mana Whenua in the District.

Central to the plan is a partnership with Mana Whenua which recognises the customary authority of an iwi or hapú over what happens to a site such as Pukekiwiriki.

Mill Road Corridor Study

The Mill Road Corridor is an important link between Drury, Papakura and Manukau. As the region grows, we will need to develop this eastern route to cater for pedestrian, cyclist and vehicle traffic.

A series of information days held in late 2009 and early 2010 gave residents an opportunity to meet the project team, ask questions and get to know more about the project. The following information was made available at those meetings:
