Hinemoa St/Awanui St road changes
The Kaipātiki Local Board has been hearing safety concerns from residents about this area for a while. There have been several crashes into private property, with a couple of vehicles hitting buildings or coming close to it.
The Local Board, in particular member Melanie Kenrick, have been asking for a solution here to improve safety.
Auckland Transport have investigated the situation and in November will be installing a number of flexi-posts to both increase the prominence of the intersection and narrow the road width which should slow vehicles down. This solution is the only one that can be prioritised at the moment due to tight budgets.
See the attached map for the new layout:
* Red dots: Flexi-poles
* Blue lines: New road markings
* Shaded areas: Bus movements
