The current Long Term Plan (10-year budget) has $3.39m allocated to a project for Condell Avenue Street Renewals, with the bulk of the spending budgeted for financial year 2027-28. Think Papanui understand this relates to the section between Aorangi Road and Blighs Road.
In information released this week, the Council has advised that there is a potential budget shortfall with this project, and that “potential funding opportunities and cost optimization measures” may be likely. The Council goes on to state that they “remain committed to advancing the project efficiently and will keep all stakeholders informed of any significant developments”, and “anticipate proceeding to construction in FY26 following a successful community engagement process.” FY26 is the financial year running from July 2025 to June 2026.
