[ad_1]

The following update on the Main North Road bus priority project has been sent by the Council's engagement staff:
"Dear Submitter
Main North Road Bus Priority Update for Submitters
I’m getting in touch to let you know that at its meeting on 24 August, the Papanui/Innes Community Board decided to defer their recommendation to Council for a decision on the Main North Road bus priority proposal. They will reconsider the report at their 14 September meeting.
The agenda will be available online three working days before the meeting.
We will get back to let you know the outcome of the meeting."
Think Papanui will continue to share information in relation to this proposal, including the agenda && outcome of the 14 September meeting.
