The Wheels to Wings – Papanui ki Waiwhetū Major Cycle Route is set to be “rephased” tomorrow, which Councillors considering a staff recommendation to implement only an eastern connection, along with signalisation of the Harewood/Gardiners/Breens intersection and a crossing outside Harewood School.

The eastern connection will link the Nor’West Arc and Northern Line cycleways, between the railway crossing and Matsons Avenue, as well as providing a signalised cycle and pedestrian crossing just west of Matsons Ave (pic).

The balance of the project is proposed to be delivered in the 2029-2031 financial years.

Peak-hour bus lanes will remain on Cranford Street, following Council approval of the design option recommended by the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board. The lanes will run between Innes Road and Berwick Street citybound, while the northbound lane will run between Westminster Street and Innes Road.
