College Street Normal School

Proposed changes

• Proposed replacement of existing 40km/h VSL on College Street.
• Proposed permanent 30km/h on Kensington Mews, Karaka Street, Marne Street, and Park Road from its intersection with Ake Ake Avenue to a point 60 metres west of its intersection with Union Street.

Reason for proposed change

The permanent 30km/h on the Park Road extends to cater the access to the school on Karaka Street, as well as the kea crossing/kerb buildouts on Park Road that will service the school.

The VSL on College Street is to support the safety of children during school times, but maintaining the main purpose of the road at other times. College Street is also a bus route.

Covers the immediate streets around the school where there will be a high volume of pedestrians and pick-up/drop-off area. The average speed that people are travelling on these two roads is already less than 30km/h.
