At any given time of the day or night, many pedestrians (including school children, shoppers, business owners and people using alternate transport options) navigate this intersection in close proximity to vehicles.
Auckland Transport (AT) is preparing to start works on this section of road in the vicinity of the Three Lamps area to improve the safety of all users sharing the road space, including pedestrians crossing the road.
Our design takes into consideration a variety of factors including public feedback received during consultations, knowledge from experts in their field, and improvements generated from findings of a Road Safety Audit.
AT has been working alongside community representatives including the Ponsonby Business Association to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes throughout the development of the design.
The delivery of these safety improvement works is supported through the Auckland Regional Fuel Tax and makes progress towards Tāmaki Makaurau’s commitment to Vision Zero, an ambitious transport safety vision, with the goal of no deaths or serious injuries on our transport system by 2050.
Vision Zero is the international benchmark for transport safety and everyone deserves to get home safely.
