Fits in with the City Centre Masterplan vision, local board plans, and of course CCRG's hopes for a more people-friendly (just nicer really) street environment promoting safety, neighbourhoods and neighbourlihoodness (is that a word? should be!) for us all.
CCRG is highly supportive of the agreed plans like the city centre masterplan, Access for Everyone, and this Innovating streets kaupapa, because of all the potential benefits for everyone, especially residents.
Many of the positions that CCRG have agreed upon and for which we advocate, can flow from the implementation of these plans, such as air quality improvements, more trees/greenery, noise reductions, street Safety, ease of getting about, and just a more people-friendly city centre neighbourhood.
Share the streets 'cos residents live here!
