4.1.1 Activity: Road Operations
· Level of Service: 10.0.35 Promote modal shift: Increase the percentage share of walking trips
· Option 1 – Install Pedestrian Crossing and parking changes (preferred option)
· A pedestrian Crossing (Zebra) will give priority to pedestrians crossing Hereford Street between the Civic offices and the Ngai Tahu development and Carpark on the south side of Hereford Street
· The Pedestrian Crossing in this location will link the pedestrian desire line between Worcester Street, Art Gallery and the Bridge of Remembrance
· The parking changes will facilitate the installation of the Zebra and the requirements of the Ngai Tahu development on the south side of Hereford Street
· Installing a Loading Zone on the south side of Hereford Street will remove the need for delivery vehicles to U-turn thus improving road safety.
· Installing the pedestrian Crossing Zebra and approving the parking changes on the south side of Hereford Street will reduce the current number of 16 on Street parking spaces to 7 on the south side of the Street.
Hereford Street Pedestrian Crossing Zebra and Parking Changes
5.1 It has always been the intention to provide a pedestrian priority crossing from the Hereford Street Civic offices building to the Ngai Tahu development on the southern side of Hereford Street. This will facilitate a pedestrian link from the Worcester Street up the ramp feature through Civic offices across Hereford Street to the Ngai Tahu Development thus connecting the two sites.
5.2 The key to the success of a Pedestrian Crossing facility is locating it on an identified pedestrian desire line, which has a fairly consistent number of pedestrians crossing in the location all day. The number of council staff alone crossing between the civic offices and the Hereford Street 'West End' carpark on an average working day will ensure the consistency of crossing pedestrians is maintained.
5.3 Future Proposed AAC works will renew the kerb on the south side of Hereford Street and correct the post-quake road level differentials, therefore this proposal will provide 'Stick-On' kerb build outs for the proposed Zebra Crossing until the future AAC works realign the kerbs to match the north side of the road.
6. Option 1 – Hereford Street Pedestrian Crossing and parking changes (preferred)
6.1 The proposed Hereford Street parking changes and pedestrian crossing will facilitate the safe operation of the Ngai Tahu development under construction on the south side of Hereford Street and provide prioritised pedestrian connectivity between the Council offices and the new development.

A further five on street parking spaced are proposed to be removed to facilitate the installation of the Zebra Crossing and its required 30km/hr SSSD /sight lines equating to the loss of nine on street parking spaces.
6.3 The remaining on street parking will consist of five 60 minute pay and display spaces between Cambridge Terrace and the 'West End' carpark exit. Between the carpark exit and the Zebra Crossing are the 2 remaining on street parking spaces, it is proposed to designate 1, 7 meter space as a Loading Zone and the remaining Space as a 10 minute short term parking space
6.4 The proposed Loading Zone (Goods Vehicles Only) will facilitate west bound on street goods loading to the Ngai Tahu Development, as there is no entry permitted from Hereford Street, it will also provide west bound goods loading to the Council building.
6.5 The proposed 10 minute short term parking space will provide drop of pick up to all vehicles to both the Council and Ngai Tahu sites
6.6 As previously mentioned the proposed Zebra Crossing will provide prioritised pedestrian connectivity between the two sites and effectively link the art gallery to the 'bridge of remembrance' through the Council and Ngai Tahu sites.
6.7 The Number 17 bus stop which is a half hourly service has been adjusted slightly to fit in with the proposed Ngai Tahu housing development at the Montreal end of the site. The committee has previously approved a shelter for this stop.
6.8 The level of significance of this option is low and is consent with section 2 of this report
6.9 Engagement requirements for this level of significance are consultation with adjacent property owners.
6.10 This option does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Ngāi Tahu, their culture and traditions.

Ngai Tahu property limited have been involved in production of this proposal and support its implementation. The decision in this report do not involve a decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value to Ngai Tahu.
6.12 Ngai Tahu property limited in developing the site have incorporated design elements which take into account the intrinsic value to Ngai Tahu. This report supports these design elements in facilitating the successful operation of the Ngai Tahu development on the KEB site. (See attachment B)
6.13 As mentioned above Ngai Tahu property limited, the developers of the KEB site support this proposal. The only other effected party is the City Council located on the north side of the street, however this proposal will not change the north side of Hereford Street other than the Zebra linking the two sites.
6.14 The Wynn William building owners were sent a copy of the proposal and all three businesses within the building were personally hand delivered a plan of the proposal which was explained to them. Aranz medical located on level one of the Wynn Williams building responded with questions about loading and indicated their support for the proposal.
6.15 This option is Consistent with Council's Plans and Policies
6.16 Cost of Implementation – Ngai Tahu Property Limited will meet the cost of this proposal
6.17 Maintenance / Ongoing Costs – Are covered under the area maintenance contract.
6.18 Funding source – Ngai Tahu property Limited

1.1 The purpose of this report is to outline key changes to the previously approved design and the rationale for those changes.
1.2 Request Infrastructure, Transport and Environment (ITE) Committee recommend to Council acceptance of the altered orientation of the intersection with an understanding of the resultant impacts.
1.3 This report is staff generated as a result changes made to the previously approved scheme design of the Marshland Road, Lower Styx Road, Hawkins Road intersection and the Marshland Road Bridge.
2.1 The decisions in this report are low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council's Significance and Engagement Policy.
2.1.1 The level of significance is assessed as low as staff are asking Council to endorse a previous agreed design option with a different positioning.
2.1.2 The community engagement is consistent with this assessment.
That the Infrastructure, Transport and Environment Committee recommend that the Council:
1. Approve the staff proposal for the revised design and position for Marshlands Road, Lower Styx Road, Hawkins Road intersection improvement and widening of Marshland Road Bridge design (refer Appendix C & D).
2. Approve that the intersection of Marshland Road, Lower Styx Road, Hawkins Road be controlled by traffic signals (lights); Marshland Road Bridge be widened; and the project proceed to final design, tender and construction as detailed in Appendix C & D.
3. Request Staff to investigate and if feasible to proceed with the construction of the bridge widening works ahead of the intersection upgrade.
4. Notes that the change request process is in place to adjust budgets in line with internal financial delegations.
4.1.1 Activity: Roads and Footpaths
· Level of Service: 16.0.3 Maintain resident satisfaction with roadway condition
4.1.2 Capital Programme ID 1347 Lower Styx / Marshland Intersection Improvements and ID 913 Marshland Road Bridge upgrade.
4.2 Council approved (15 October 2015) changes to the Lower Styx, Hawkins and Marshland Roads intersection and Marshland Road Bridge improvements.
4.3 An ecological survey during detailed design highlighted the discovery of a species of lamprey that use the Reserve Canal Drain as both a spawning and nesting sites has resulted in changes to the positioning of the intersection.
4.4 A revised design was developed that shifts the intersection orientation and the bridge widening approximately 10 metres in the south west direction. The revised design was completed in conjunction with Environment Canterbury (ECan), Department of Conservation (DoC), Mahaanui Kurataiao Ltd (MKT) and National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA), to avoid the spawning and nesting site of the lamprey.
4.5 The revised design has resulted in an increased requirement to acquire private land (3235 square meters from five properties) and the demolition of a dwelling on the corner of Marshland Road and Lower Styx Road.
4.6.1 Option 1 – Signalise intersection, allow all movements and widen bridge, in the revised orientation (preferred option).
4.6.2 Option 2 - Signalise intersection, allow all movements and widen bridge, in the originally approved orientation as approved at 15 October 2015 Council meeting (Appendix B).
4.6.3 Option 3 – Do nothing
4.7.1 The advantages of the preferred option include:
· Minimise the ecological impacts of the project and preserve the lamprey spawning and nesting sites along the Reserve Canal Drain.
· Likely MKT, Doc, NIWA and ECan support of any land use and riverbed consent applications, which would mean increased certainty of project delivery.
· Minimisation of project footprint and treatment of storm water in Janet Stewart Reserve.
· Increased private land requirements and potential additional property costs, including demolition of dwelling at corner of Marshland Road and Lower Styx Road.
· Removal or relocation of the protected cabbage tree.
Lower Styx and Marshland Road Intersection and Bridge Upgrade, Safety Improvements Project
5.1 Introduction:
5.1.1 The existing intersection has restricted turning movements and inadequacies are compounded by the ongoing development in the north of Christchurch and Waimakariri District, including the nearby Prestons Development.
· Marshlands Road Bridge over the Styx River is 50m south of the intersection and requires an upgrade to facilitate the improvements.
Following public consultation:
5.1.2 The previous Scheme Design approvals were received from Burwood / Pegasus and Shirley / Papanui Community Boards on 22 September 2015 and full Council on 15 October 2015 (Attachment A for full report, Attachment B, Council Resolution)
5.1.3 Since receiving approval, the design team, has progressed the intersection and bridge design details to 80% complete.
5.1.4 An ecological survey during detail design phase identified the Reserve Canal Drain that runs parallel to Marshland Road supports a species of lamprey. Further investigation and consultation with with ECan, DoC, MKT and NIWA, identified that the Reserve Canal Drain is spawning and rearing site for the lamprey. DoC noted that lamprey have a conservation status of "Threatened – Nationally Vulnerable" and comes under the protection of Section 26ZJ of the Conservation Act 1987 (offences relating to spawning fish).
5.1.5 Land use resource consents and consents it undertake work within the waterway are required. It is likely that DoC and MKT will oppose any consent application that impacts the Reserve Canal Drain and the spawning site of the lamprey. This would elongate the consent processes and could result one or more consents necessary for the works being refused.
5.1.6 As a result further designs were developed in conjunction with DoC, NIWA, ECan and MKT. This resulted in five different options (including realignment of the existing channel) being explored using a multi criteria analysis. The Revised Options Report (Attachment C), in particular pages 25-28 and embedded Appendix G within that report, outlines the design and consultation process with DoC, NIWA and ECan. The current preferred design which minimises the impacts to the lamprey's habitat has been endorsed by MKT, DoC, NIWA and ECan.
5.1.7 An updated independent road safety audit has been completed and endorsed the revised design with no serious concerns noted.
5.1.8 The following table illustrates the technical differences between Option 1 and Option 2. This is summarised as:
· Increased private land requirements for Option 1.
· Increased impact on the waterways and ecological fauna in Option 2.
· There is minimal difference demonstrated between the two options from a road safety perspective.
5.1.9 Significant attempts were made to minimise the project footprint and minimise the amount of private land required to be acquired to manage the stormwater runoff from the upgraded intersection. The Revised Options Report details the considerations on pages 28 to 30. The resulting design manages stormwater through the installation of kerb and channel with treatment within the Janet Stewart Reserve.
6. Option 1 - Signalise intersection, allow all movements and widen bridge, in the revised orientation (preferred)
6.1 To proceed with finalising detail design of the revised preferred design (Attachment D) and associated property acquisition process.
6.3 Engagement requirements for this level of significance are low.
6.4 This option does involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does specifically impact Ngāi Tahu, their culture and traditions.
6.5 Liaison with MKT on both the waterway works and lamprey protections is complete and they are in support of this option. Key focus for the local iwi is the protection of the lamprey nesting and spawning site.
6.6 Relocation or removal of the cabbage tree located on 548 Marshland Road, requires further investigation and consultation to agree a solution.
6.7 This scheme has been publically consulted on in June / July 2015 and endorsed by the Burwood / Pegasus and Shirley / Papanui Community Boards on 22 September 2015 and full Council on 15 October 2015. This consultation did not factor in the proposed alteration to the position of the intersection.
6.8 However, the directly affected parties as a result of the position change for the intersection have been consulted with. These are the land owners of 550, 548 Marshland Road, 9a Lower Styx Road, 794, 784 Hawkins Road.
6.9 This options requires the relocation / removal of the "scheduled significant tree" listed cabbage tree (under the District Plan) located at 548 Marshland Road. Preliminary investigations are underway on the logistics and relocation costs.
6.10 This option is consistent with Council's Plans and Policies.
6.11 Cost of Implementation is $10,600,000. This includes the widening of the existing bridge (upstream side), additional approach works, and signalisation of the intersection, private property acquisition, increased service relocation costs and stormwater treatment in Janet Stewart Reserve.
6.12 Maintenance / Ongoing Costs – allowance has been made for future maintenance.
6.13 Funding source - as per project funding allowances in CPMS 913 and 1347, $1,689,240 and $5,053,080 with a combined total of $6,742,320, outlined in the current LTP.
6.14 Change request processes, in line with financial delegations, are in place to increase the funding from underspends within other approved programmes and projects. It is not expected there will be an issue with this approval process.
6.15 NZTA funding support will be applied for the final design and construction phase of this project.
6.16 Land use consents, building consents and various authorisation requirements have been identified and will be confirmed in the final design phase. No issues have been identified with obtaining these consents (DoC, NIWA, ECan and MKT are in support of this option).
6.17 Private property acquisition is required.
6.18 Upgrading this intersection is effectively required as part of the Plan Change 30 included within the City Plan.
6.19 Private property acquisition is required including requirement to demolish dwelling on the corner of Lower Styx Road and Marshland Road. The mitigation strategy has been to minimise the foot print of the project and work closely with affected parties. If this is not successful then this could lead to initiating the formal acquisition process under the Public Works Act 1981.
6.20 Further investigation and consultation with local iwi is required for the removal and / or relocation of the "scheduled significant tree" (cabbage tree) located on 548 Marshland Road.
6.21 Implementation dependencies it is expected that both the intersection and bridge project will be tendered and constructed as a single package. If property purchases is delayed there is an option with proceeding the construction of the bridge widening ahead of the intersection upgrade.
6.22 Implementation timeframe it is expected start to construction targeted for January 2018, for a period of 18 months.
7. Option 2 - Signalise intersection, allow all movements and widen bridge, in the originally approved orientation as at 15 October 2015 Council meeting
7.1 To proceed with the construction of the original proposed design, as outlined in the 22 September 2015 community board meeting.
7.2 The level of significance of this option is low consistent with section 2 of this report
7.4 This option involves a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does specifically impact Ngāi Tahu, their culture and traditions.
7.5 Liaison with MKT on both the waterway works and lamprey protections is complete and they are not in support of this option. Key focus for the local iwi is the protection of the lamprey nesting and spawning site.
7.6 Relocation or removal of the cabbage tree located on 548 Marshland Road is not required.
7.7 This scheme has been publically consulted on in June / July 2015 and endorsed by the Burwood / Pegasus and Shirley / Papanui Community Boards on 22 September 2015 and full Council on 15 October 2015.
7.8 DoC, MKT, NIWA are specifically affected by this option due to the loss of the spawning and nesting sites of the rare species of Lamprey. This option is not supported by MKT, NIWA, ECan and DoC.
7.9 This option is consistent with Council's Plans and Policies.
7.10 Cost of Implementation is $7,480,000. This includes the widening of the existing bridge (both sides), signalisation of the intersection and the realignment of Reserve Canal Drain.
7.12 Funding source - as per project funding allowances in CPMS 913 and 1347, $1,689,240 and $5,053,080 with a combined total of $6,742,320 outlined in the current LTP.
7.14 NZTA funding will be applied for the final design and construction phase of this project.
7.15 Land use consents, building consents and various authorisation requirements have been identified and will be confirmed in the final design phase. Issues have been identified with obtaining these consents (DoC, NIWA, ECan and MKT are not in support of this option).
7.16 Private property acquisition is not required.
7.17 Upgrading this intersection is also as part of Plan Change 30, included within the City Plan.
7.18 Land use resource consents and consents to undertake work within the waterway are required. It is likely that DoC and MKT will oppose any consent application that impacts the Reserve Canal Drain and the spawning site of the lamprey. This would elongate the consent processes and could result one or more consents necessary for the works being refused.
7.19 Implementation dependencies - not applicable.
7.20 Implementation timeframe – not applicable.
· Reduced private land requirements and potential additional property costs, including the retention of the dwelling at corner of Marshland Road and Lower Styx Road.
· Do not have to relocate the protected cabbage tree.
· Ecological impact of the project is high, resulting in probable loss of lamprey spawning and nesting site along the Reserve Canal Drain.
· Lack of support from MKT, DoC, NIWA and ECan of any land use and riverbed consent applications, which would mean increased uncertainty of project delivery.
8.1 This option is to do nothing and leave the existing intersection and bridge in its current state.
8.5 This option is inconsistent with the prior public consultation process that occurred in June / July 2015.
8.6 This option is inconsistent with Council's Plans and Policies
8.6.1 Inconsistency – unable to complete the intersection and bridge safety improvements.
8.6.2 Reason for inconsistency – this option does not meet this requirement.

8.7 No additional cost of implementation, with the exception of the costs incurred to date.
8.8 Maintenance / ongoing costs changes and will increase over time due to incremental asset degradation.
8.9 Upgrading this intersection is effectively required as part of Plan Change 30.
8.10 Negative public perception by not delivering on approved scheme.
8.11 Safety issues of the intersection and bridge are not addressed.
· No work required
· No private land acquisition required
· No ecological impact
· Safety implications of the current intersection not addressed.
· Not meeting consent conditions of Plan Change 30
· Reputational impact of not delivering on consulted scheme.

While on a photo walk in the Meadowlilly Woods we came across a lot of these nice Trillium grandiflorum. They are more commonly found having white flowers, but they turn pink a few days before wilting.
This flower is the official emblem and flower of the Province of Ontario.
