Detailed traffic resolutions for the first section of the Wheels to Wings Major Cycle Route will be decided by the Council on 3 September.
Construction of this section was approved earlier this year, along with installation of traffic signals at the Harewood/Gardiners/Breens intersection and at Harewood School, plus minor safety improvements. All remaining sections of the Wheels to Wings have been deferred to later years in the Long-Term Plan (LTP).
Staff were previously asked to investigate a raised safety platform at the Harewood Road signalised pedestrian/cycle crossing between Matsons Avenue and Chapel Street, and this has been included in the design.
