Chairperson and Committee Members 
PARAPARAUMU/RAUMATI COMMUNITY BOARD 
9 OCTOBER 2012 
Meeting Status: Public 
Purpose of Report: For Decision 
NO PARKING LINES ON KĀPITI ROAD 
PURPOSE OF REPORT 

This  report  seeks  Council  approval  to  install  broken  yellow  lines  from  the 
entrance of Seven Oaks in the 70k area towards Hurley Road, and broken yellow 
lines on Kāpiti Road from the complex to Cedar Drive.  
SIGNIFICANCE OF DECISION 

The  recommendations  in  this  report  do  not  trigger  the  Council’s  significance 
policy.  
BACKGROUND 

Several requests have come from the Kāpiti Retirement Trust wanting no parking 
lines on Kāpiti Road as there are concerns with the visibility for cars  exiting the 
Seven  Oaks  complex  onto  Kāpiti  Road  due  to  vehicles  parked  right  up  to  the 
entrance-way to the village. 

This area would include the Kea Crossing which was previously installed without 
the required no stopping lines. 
CONSIDERATIONS 
Issues 

The solution to the problem would be to install give way signage and associated 
road markings at both sites in line with Attachment 1 
Financial Considerations 

There are no financial considerations, as the cost of the proposed works is in the 
order  of  $5,000  and  can  be  accommodated  from  the  2012/2013  Minor  Works 
budget. 
Legal Considerations 

There are no legal considerations 
Delegation 

The  Community  Board  has  “authority”  to  approve  or  reject  officer 
recommendations relating to all traffic control and signage matters, in relation to 
 
Page 1 of 2 

IS-12-670 
existing  local  roads  within  the  community  board’s  area,  except  for  changes  to 
speed  restrictions  on  local  roads.  (The  latter  power  has  been  delegated  to  the 
Regulatory Management Committee). 
Consultation 

The police have been consulted with and are supportive of this solution. 
Publicity Considerations 
10  The public will be notified prior to works commencing on site and again once the 
improvements are complete through a press release. 
RECOMMENDATIONS 
 
11  That  the  Paraparaumu/Raumati  Community  Board  approves  the  installation  of 
broken  yellow  lines  from  the  entrance  of  Seven  Oaks  in  the  70k  area  towards 
Hurley  Road,  and  broken  yellow  lines  on  Kāpiti  Road  from  the  complex  to 
Cedar Drive.

PARAPARAUMU/RAUMATI COMMUNITY BOARD 
13 FEBRUARY 2018 
Meeting Status: Public 
Purpose of Report: For Information and decision 
BROKEN YELLOW LINES ON KĀPITI ROAD  
PURPOSE OF REPORT 

To inform the Community Board of the decision to install broken yellow lines on the 
north side of Kāpiti Road between Larch Grove and Warrimoo Street. 

To obtain approval from the Community Board to extend the existing  broken yellow 
lines on the north side of Kāpiti Road between Seven Oaks and Cedar Drive to cover 
the whole length of this section of Kāpiti Road. 
DELEGATION 

Section D of the Governance Structure and Delegations 2016-2019 Triennium 
provide the Community Board with the 
 

“…Authority  to  approve  or  reject  officer  recommendations  relating  to  traffic 
control  and  signage  matters  for  existing  local  roads,  except  those  matters  that 
involve  significant  safety  issues.  Community  Boards  will  be  consulted  about 
these matters but final delegation will rest with Council officers”. 

 

The  matter  referred  to  under  1.  is  considered  a  significant  safety  issue  and  is 
therefore presented for information. The matter referred to under  2. is presented for 
decision-making. 
 
BACKGROUND 

The section of Kāpiti Road between Larch Grove and Warrimoo Street was already 
identified in 2014 as posing a safety issue for cyclists when cars  are parked on the 
on-road  cycle  lane.  Along  the  south  side  of  this  section  of  Kāpiti Road  with  the 
exception of one 8 metre section broken yellow  lines (BYLs)  were installed. On the 
north side no BYLs were installed after consultation with residents.  

The installation of BYLs on both sides for the full length of this section has now been 
reconsidered following continued feedback from Kāpiti’s cycling groups. 

Requests also have been received from residents to extend the existing BYLs along 
Kāpiti Road between Seven Oaks and Cedar Drive. 
ISSUES AND OPTIONS 
Issues  

Kāpiti Road between Warrimoo Street and Larch Grove 
The  Council  has  received  continued  requests  for  the  installation  of  BYLs  on  both 
sides of Kāpiti Road on this section from cyclist advocacy groups. In 2014 BYLs were 
installed  on  the  southern  side  only  with  the  exception  of  8  metres  outside  the 
property  at  45  Kāpiti  Road.  This  was  the  result  of  consultation  with  residents  and 
#3422280 
Page 1 of 3 

IS-18-426 
receiving feedback from three residents along this section that were opposed to the 
BYLs for various reasons. 

If cars are parked on the cycle lane this means that cyclists have to swerve around 
them,  into  the  live  traffic  lane.  The  latest  traffic  count  on  Kāpiti  Road  is  22,000 
vehicles per day and it is by far Kāpiti’s busiest arterial road. This puts cyclists at a 
high  risk  of  being  involved  in  an  accident.  For  that  reason,  on  large  parts  of  Kāpiti 
Road, BYLs have already been installed. 
10  A comparison of crash statistics shows that Kāpiti has the second highest crash risk 
on  arterial  roads  in  comparison  to  the  peer  group  (Upper  Hutt,  Porirua,  Nelson, 
Napier, Palmerston North and Invercargill).  Kāpiti Coast has also been identified by 
New Zealand Transport Association (NZTA) in the Communities at Risk Register as 
having the  second highest personal risk for  cyclist crashes of all local authorities in 
New Zealand.  
11  Council wants to deliver roads that are safe for all its users and wants to encourage 
and promote the use of active transport modes.  Taking the above into account, the 
current situation is considered to pose a high safety risk for cyclists and the decision 
was  made  to  install  BYLs  along  the  northern  side  between  Warrimoo  Street  and 
Larch Grove and on the 8 metre section on the southern side that previously was not 
included. A plan of the extended parking restrictions is included as Appendix 1 of this 
report. 
12  Kāpiti Road between Seven Oaks and Cedar Drive 
BYLs were installed at the intersection of Kāpiti Road and Cedar Drive in March 2017 
to  improve  visibility  for  vehicles  turning  out  of  Cedar  Drive  onto  Kāpiti Road.  A 
section  of  approximately  25  metres  was  left  without  BYLs  to  allow  for  some  car 
parking.  Having  on-street  car  parking  on  this  section  of  Kāpiti  Road  is  seen  as  a 
passive traffic calming method, it creates “side friction” and helps to reinforce that it is 
a 50kmh road. In recent months service requests have been received requesting the 
extension  of  the  BYLs  to  Cedar  Drive  to  prevent  any  car  parking  and  improve 
visibility further.  
Options  
13  Kāpiti Road between Seven Oaks and Cedar Drive has been looked at several times 
and  by  different  members  of  the  Roading  Team,  and  the  visibility  in  each  direction 
has  been  within  guidelines  and  is  not  considered  an  issue.  The  on-road  cycle  lane 
also  places  oncoming  vehicles  a  further  1.5  metres  out  from  any  parked  cars 
improving visibility. Visiting the site after each initial service request proved fruitless 
because there were few if any cars parked there but in recent weeks the cars for sale 
numbers have tripled and now extend from Magrath Avenue through to Cedar Drive. 
From  a  road safety  perspective,  the  current  BYLs  allow  for  appropriate  visibility  but 
based on the service requests residents are having a different experience and do not 
feel safe pulling out of Cedar Drive. Therefore it is recommended that the BYLs are 
extended and fill in the gap between Lodge Drive and Cedar Drive.

CONSIDERATIONS 
Legal considerations 
14  There  are  no  legal  considerations  other  than  ensuring  any  new  road-markings  are 
installed in accordance with NZTA Guidelines and New Zealand Traffic Regulations. 
Financial considerations 
15  The  cost  of  line  marking  the  new  broken  yellow  lines  can  be  accommodated  in  the 
2017/2018 road maintenance budget. 
SIGNIFICANCE AND ENGAGEMENT  
Significance policy 
16  This matter has a low level of significance under Council policy.  
Consultation already undertaken 
17  Previous  consultation  was  undertaken  in  February  2014  with  Kāpiti  Road  residents 
between  Moana  Road  and  Larch  Grove  resulting  in  parking  restrictions  only  being 
implemented on the south side of Kapiti Road between Warrimoo Street and Moana 
Road.  Safety  concerns  for  the  greater  community  now  outweigh  the  need  of  some 
residents  to  retain  on-street  parking  on  this  section  of  Kapiti  Road.  Residents 
affected by the new parking restrictions were informed of the changes by letters sent 
out on 17 January 2018. To date, no feedback on the letter has been received. 
18  For the section of  Kāpiti Road between Lodge Drive and Cedar  Drive, there are no 
residential  properties  fronting  or  taking  access  from  Kāpiti  Road  and  on-street 
parking  is  not  required.  Residential  properties  in  this  area  are  all  part  of  the  Seven 
Oaks  retirement  village  and  take  access  from  their  internal  roads.  We  do  not 
consider  them  to  be  affected  by  any  parking  restrictions  and  have  therefore  not 
consulted them.  
RECOMMENDATIONS 
19  That the Paraparaumu/Raumati Community Board approves: 
20  Installation of 30 metres of broken yellow lines from a point 60 metres east of Lodge 
Drive to a point 10 metres west of Cedar Drive on Kāpiti Road as shown in Appendix 
2 of report IS-18-426.
