Have Your Say

INTRODUCTION

The one way system for the upper Town Centre creates some confusion for visitors to Te Anau and traffic hazards for all users.  The Community Board has requested that changes to the traffic flow pattern be investigated to see if workable improvements can be made.

Three options for changing the traffic flow were discussed by the Board in February and subsequently reviewed by a Traffic Engineer.  These preliminary steps showed that any changes could have a significant impact on businesses in the Town Centre and affect everyone who uses the area.  Before committing to any modifications of the traffic pattern or to fuller investigations, the Board has therefore requested that public consultation be undertaken. 

Convenient traffic access is important for commercial operators but a successful town centre also needs to be pedestrian friendly and have a safe but vibrant heart where public open space fulfils an important role.  Some funding is already in place to make improvements to the heart of the town and the Concept Plan process commenced by Venture Southland
mid-year 2010 resulted in strong support for further enhancement of the Town Centre.

Any major changes to the traffic pattern will have to consider the wider impact on pedestrians and cyclists and on the usability of open green spaces in the Town Centre so that the distinctive character of Te Anau is not lost.  In addition, if any works are proposed, it would be good to take advantage of the opportunity to enhance the heart of the town with a central area which becomes a natural place for people to gather, relax and meet friends.

ISSUES

The primary safety issues which have been identified are:

• The SH94 Luxmore Drive turn-off into the top of Milford Crescent is confusing to visitors. Vehicles often turn in front of opposing traffic. Note that this intersection is under NZ Transport Agency control, not under Council control. NZTA has done a preliminary investigation of issues and thinks that widening and better definition of the turn-off lane from Luxmore Drive into the Town Centre will give the most immediate benefit. A roundabout is possible at this location but funding of the estimated cost of $550,000 to meet highway standards is not a priority given that the accident history at the intersection is not bad enough to rate it as a "black spot" site.
• The turn-off from Milford Crescent into the top of the Town Centre is narrow and not well sign-posted.
• Some visitors travel up the upper portion of Town Centre the wrong way.
• There are a multitude of access and turning points on Milford Crescent (Library, Mitre10 car park, The Lane, Downing Lane Supermarket car park, Wong Way and Town Centre).
• The exit from The Lane on to Milford Crescent requires particular care as visibility around the curve of Milford Crescent is limited.
• There is a 30 km/hr speed limit in the Town Centre but this is not well observed, even by residents.
• Many pedestrians wander across the wide intersection at the lower junction of MilfordCrescent and Town Centre.

Other wider issues identified are:

• The green open space adjacent to the lower end of Milford Crescent breaks the town into two sections.
• Businesses in the upper Town Centre suffer from a visitor perception that the mainstreet finishes at the Mobil service station. Pedestrian traffic in the upper TownCentre is less than closer to the lake. However, the Town Centre above the MilfordCrescent junction is better serviced with 100 street car parks, compared to 80in the lower Town Centre area.
• Trees and planters in the main street soften the built environment but make it more difficult to place clear signage. 

PROPOSALS

The following options have been discussed by the Community Board so far:

• Option A

Convert Milford Crescent to one way (uphill) flow and the upper portion of Town Centre to one way (downhill) flow (refer sketch A attached).

This option will require:

            -           Increased width of access into the top of the Town Centre.

            -           Changes to the intersection with Bligh Street to give Bligh Street precedence over the Crescent.

            -          Changes to the lower Town Centre/Crescent intersection.

Conversion of the two way section of Town Centre from Paper Plus to Settlers to one way (with the consequent opportunity to create additional parking or open green space) is also included in this option.

• Option B

As for Option A, but retain two way access in Town Centre from Paper Plus to Settlers.  This option means that the lower Town Centre/Crescent intersection does not require changes other than signage and line marking

• Option C

Remove all parking from the Crescent, thus improving visibility around the curve, but retain two way traffic flows.

This option affects 14 parking places but does not improve visibility around the inside of the curve unless the traffic lanes are moved to the outside of the road corridor.

• Option D

Reverse the traffic direction in The Lane so that the awkward exit on to the Crescent is avoided.  This option will require all of the parking bays in the Lane to be reconstructed on reversed diagonals. 

Option A is considered to be the best in terms of improving traffic flow and removing confusion.  Option C, while cheap, will probably result in increased vehicle speed around Milford Crescent.

YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE A SAY

Council does not have any preconceived agenda for changes other than to seek improvements and the best outcome for the town.  Undertaking this consultation does not necessarily mean that any change will be made.  The result could be that the impact of changes outweighs any perceived benefit to the community or that more investigations are needed to resolve issues arising before a decision is made. 

Te Anau is blessed with many capable residents with good ideas so your inputs are sought and will be taken into consideration.  Please have your say for the future health and wealth of the town. 

Your submission must be lodged with Council

no later than noon on Friday, 21 October 2011

Hard copy submissions can be dropped at the Council office, 116 Town Centre.  A submission form template is attached for your use if required.  Hand drawn sketches and plans are welcome. 

Digital submissions can be made on-line at the council website or by emailing to emailsdc@southlanddc.govt.nz. 

Make your ideas count!

NEXT STEPS

The expected process will be:

• 21 October 2011 Submissions close.
• 31 October 2011 Ideas collated and evaluated.
• 9 November 2011 Community Board considers the recommendations.

Results communicated back to residents through Te Anau newspapers and Council website.  The result at this stage may be that no changes are recommended. Further investigations carried out if necessary.

• February 2012 Cost estimates included in 2012 Annual Plan estimates for further public inputs if total cost significantly exceeds current provision of $100,000 for town centre improvements.
• Mid 2012 Earliest likely construction start date if any significant works agreed. (Note that very minor works could commence earlier but that works may be strategically implemented over several years if major changes are agreed).

Good progress has been made on the action points included in the Southland District Council's Inclusive Communities Strategy.

Group manager environment and community Bruce Halligan said the strategy was created after submissions to Council's Annual Plan asked Council to look at issues relating to people with disabilities. Council decided to widen the strategy from people with disabilities, to making our communities more inclusive for all, with the focus being on people with disabilities and ethnic minorities.

The draft strategy was sent out to various groups with positive feedback received and then staff set to work.

"We have put some good runs on the board, including the following:

• Incorporating disability awareness into the Council induction programme
• Reviewing Council's website for ease of use and e-government standards
• Including a list of Southland District walkways, parks and areas of interest that have wheelchair access on the website
• Gathering a register of interested people/groups to consult with regarding inclusiveness
• Undertaking an accessibility stocktake of townships, council facilities and community housing
• Training the building team on barrier free building
• Incorporating disability access into the parks and reserves policies
• Building a list of individuals and groups who can help communicate with customers in sign language, Braille and other languages, for example
• Reviewing disabled parking through the District

These items and more are either well under way or finished," Mr Halligan said.

However, it is important that Council continues to review the relevancy of both the strategy and the action plan, and after 18 months of them being in place, it is a good time to do so now, he said.

"We are looking at what we have done and what we could be looking at in the future and we want input from the community. Things we could consider are a seniors' council, getting grants for providing wheelchair-accessible swings, making equipment available or IT upgrades for a talking website. Obviously we don't have funding for everything, but we still want to hear from you.

"We want to hear from people and groups in the community about what they want and/or think Council could do," he said.

To view the Inclusive Communities Strategy, please follow the link: Inclusive Communities Strategy

Feedback can be sent to Inclusive Communities Strategy feedback, Southland District Council, PO Box 903, Invercargill or emailed to ics@southlanddc.govt.nz by 29 October.
