Glenfield Primary Safe School Streets Trial on Chivalry Road
Glenfield Primary Safe School Streets Trial on Chivalry Road:
For the next few months, Auckland Transport will be trialling temporary measures around Glenfield Primary School, designed to reduce vehicle speeds.
The changes include a simplified road layout, kerb build-outs to slow traffic, and artwork to signal that this is a school area and slow speeds/extra care is needed. These changes have been developed in consultation with the Glenfield Primary School.
CONSTRUCTION:
The changes are being constructed overnight (7pm to 6pm) this week. During the construction period, there may be machinery noise, restrictions on parking, and traffic control in place.
TRIAL:
The trial will include:
* School zone markings, flexible bollards as well as new speed cushion pads which act as a visual cue to drivers that they are entering a slow speed area
* A new drop-off and pick-up zone inside the Glenfield Primary School carpark indicated by a purple painted kerb and signage
* Cycle lanes painted with a unique theme chosen by Glenfield Primary School which will help emphasise the presence of school children in the area
* Pedestrian wayfinding street art chosen by Glenfield Primary School to help direct the flow of foot traffic, particularly when children are arriving and leaving
