Duck Crossings

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Unfortunately, even though Auckland Transport are keen to slow down traffic across the city to improve safety, they are unwilling to install a duck crossing sign to help slow down the traffic:
"Auckland Transport must consider the proliferation of traffic signage in the road corridor as it can be a distraction for drivers. Signage of this nature typically has little effect on driver behaviour and does not necessarily reduce the risk to ducks, therefore we only install duck crossing signs where it has been identified that there is a risk of endangered native species being hit by traffic. While we understand the reason for your request, until such time as evidence as above is provided, we are unable to justify installing duck crossing signage at this location."

Hi Neighbours,
This Group is for people who want to walk, talk, laugh, explore, swim, have fun and make friends Monday to Friday for an hour or five mainly on the North Shore and Inner City Suburbs, but elsewhere if there is demand. We want to avoid peak traffic where possible so mainly between 9.30 am and 4 pm, we will go outside these hours for a special event. Meetup is not a Neighbourly Group, it is free and about getting out and about and meeting people. You can find it under Meetups on Google. I am the group Organiser, come join us.
Kind Regards Bevan
