Public meeting over controversial Northern Corridor
Cranford Street will soon become four lanes as part of the Northern Arterial upgrades, which has businesses worried about congestion. People with concerns about the downstream effects of the Christchurch Northern Corridor will have the chance to express their views in a public meeting next month.
Those who submitted through the consultation process have been invited to speak at the meeting on August 6, in front of the Papanui-Innes Community Board and a traffic expert at the city council chambers. Any potentially affected owners and occupiers of streets identified in the report will have the opportunity to engage with council.
A short feedback summary of the 408 submissions received was posted online last week which revealed several common themes from concerned residents.
These include safety of pedestrians, impact on businesses, loss of parking and environmental impacts, including air pollution, noise and vibration levels.
Overall, submitters expressed concern about a general sense of loss of community the increased traffic and road changes may bring.
