Proposed Traffic Resolutions
Currently open for consultation is the proposed changes to Arawa Road near Hataitai School. To have you say check out Let's Talk | Wellington City Council.
The proposal includes:
• Install Mobility Parking, At All Times, opposite no.9 Arawa Road.
• Install P5 Time Limited Parking Restriction, 8.30am to 9.00am and 2.45pm to 3.15pm, Mon-Fri During School Terms Only, opposite nos.7 and 9 Arawa Road
Why? •
Wellington City Council (WCC) have received safety and accessibility concerns from Hataitai School. During the school pick up and drop off times, parking demand is high, and vehicles have been parking in a way that obstructs visibility at the school crossing on Hohiria Road.
• Hataitai School have also requested a mobility park to improve accessibility for members of the school whanau with a mobility permit card, as there is currently no mobility parking in the vicinity.
• Therefore, WCC proposes to install additional P5 Time Limited Parking during school terms only for pick up and drop off periods to encourage vehicle turnover and to provide a safe place for parents and caregivers.
• WCC also proposes to install a new mobility parking space and kerb ramp for mobility permit holders.
Impact Improvements
• Improves safety and accessibility for pedestrians, especially for young children
• Improves safety and accessibility for mobility park users
• Improves parking availability and turnover to assist the school drop off and pick up periods
Net Parking Impact
• Converting five unrestricted parking spaces to P5 Time Limited Parking Restriction, 8.30am to 9.00am and 2.45pm to 3.15pm, Mon-Fri During School Terms Only
• Converting one unrestricted parking space to a Mobility Parking, At All Times.
Pedestrian impact
• Positive impact on the safety for children and caregivers walking to school by improving visibility for all road users at the Hohiria Road school crossing.
Predator Free Wellington - Coming to Hataitai Soon
Predator Free Wellington is coming to Hataitai! Having gathered all the necessary permissions from residents, businesses and landowners for this second phase of their city-wide eradication, they are now starting to install and service devices in Phase 2 in a suburb-by-suburb approach, and Hataitai is up next.
Those who have given permission to include their property in the eradication network can expect the Predator Free Wellington team to be installing a device at their property over the coming weeks. This is free, fully serviced, safe for pets and children, and is the same method used in the Phase 1 eradication on Miramar Peninsula.
If you’re one of the Hataitai or Roseneath residents who already have a device installed from before Predator Free Wellington switched their approach to gathering all the permissions first, thank you for your patience and ongoing support!
