Parking restriction options for Glenfield Road
Auckland Transport are proposing two options for parking restrictions on the stretch of Glenfield Road between the intersections with Coronation Rd and Eskdale Road. Each option will improve traffic movements along Glenfield Road by preventing cars from parking in the southbound lane. Use the below link to vote and provide feedback on your preferred option.
Option 1 - No Stopping At All Times:
Option 1 involves No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions from 201 Glenfield Road to the intersection of Eskdale Road.
* These parking restrictions are expected to improve traffic flow along Glenfield Road up to the intersection by making sure the southbound through lane is kept free of parked cars at all times.
* This option involves the removal of a pproximately 16 parking spaces at all times.
* The proposal also includes No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions next to the bus stop outside the cemetery to allow enough space for buses to safely enter and exit the bus stop. These restrictions extend to the intersection to make sure the left-turn slip lane remains clear at all times.
Option 2 - Clearway and No Stopping At All Times:
Option 2 involves a shorter section of No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions and a Clearway from Monday to Fri day, 6.30am to 9.30am.
* No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions would extend from the intersection with Eskdale Road to number 187 Glenfield Road. The Clearway would extend between numbers 187 and 201 Glenfield Road.
* This means that parking between numbers 187 and 201 Glenfield Road would only be restricted during the morning peak, when traffic volumes are highest.
* This option involves the removal of 5 parking spaces at all times and 11 parking spaces during the morning, Monday to Friday, 6.30am to 9.30am.
* Like Option 1, Option 2 also includes No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions next to the bus stop outside the cemetery to allow enough space for buses to safely enter and exit the stop. These restrictions extend to the intersection to make sure the left-turn slip lane remains clear at all times.
Feedback closes Friday 30 August 2019.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
