Kia ora Tim
The information you have requested – CAS-399423-W1V6H6
I refer to your request for information dated 26 June 2021 regarding changes to the provision of kerbside
parking between 166 and 184 West Coast Road as part of the Glen Eden Town Centre project.
One kerbside parking space was removed outside 172-180 West Coast Road and a new footpath constructed.
The parking area in front of 172 West Coast Road was widened without any compromises to the footpath area.
The below general plan can be found on page three on the
AT website project page.

We have provided copies of the Final Construction Drawings for this location plus the Glen Eden Plan.
With regards to your request for “all communications” related to this area, our LGOIMA Business Partner
contacted you more than once to refine this portion of your request including offering to discuss this portion of
your request by phone. AT also ran two searches of our network for “al communications” which resulted in
830,000 emails in the first search and 222,810 emails in the second search.
You were notified of the first outcome on 21 July 2021 and on 10 August 2021 you were notified this portion of
your request would be declined under section 17(f) of the LGOIMA, which applies where the information cannot
be made available without substantial collation or research.
We have however provided “communications” that were readily and easily accessible related to this particular
portion of your request, these can be found in the document titled “Communications”.
Further design change information related to this project can be found o
n Glen Eden Town Centre Safety
Improvements project page and the original proposal and feedback report can be located on t
he Glen Eden
Town Centre Pedestrian Improvements project page. The project team completed traffic modelling and operations surveys to support the change as part of this
project, we have provided the fol owing documentation:
− Glen Eden Town Centre Pedestrian Safety Improvements Feedback Repot May 2019
− AT Glen Eden Vil age Safety Improvements SSI – 200304 (funding application)
− Glen Eden Town Centre TCC Approved Resolution document 18 Dec 2020
This project did not include cycling facilities, and this was not part of the original project scope. In order to
implement cycle lanes, these would need to be considered in a more holistic manner rather than just being
provided in smal sections along the corridor. The proposed improvements wil help to manage the safety for all
road users, including cyclists, until further work to address cycling connections in the area can be investigated.
With regards to your enquiry regarding omitting the 30km/h speed zone. During the consultation phase of the
project AT received feedback both supporting and opposing the original proposed speed limit in the area. The
decision was made not to proceed with speed limits at this time as the road infrastructure and road environment
changes encourage slower speeds on West Coast Road. AT wil however continue to monitor the operating
speed in the area following completion of the project and wil also add the speed limit change to the upcoming
speed limit changes programme for further investigation and consultation.
