In July 2020, we proposed changes in your area

To improve access for large vehicles to the University’s medical facility loading bay, we proposed installing broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) parking restrictions on Park Avenue, Grafton. This proposal responds to concerns from Auckland University that parked vehicles are blocking access to the medical facility. These changes will involve relocating the existing approved shared vehicle parking to the opposite side of the road and extending it by an additional space.

Grafton - Safe with us 

Auckland Transport cares for your safety. We want to make our roads safe for everyone, people walking and cycling, especially for our kids and senior citizens and people driving. Projects like this one around Park Avenue are another step towards our goal of achieving no deaths or serious injuries on our roads. We are guided by the Vision Zero approach to transport safety, which prioritises human safety over other measures (like minor time saving).
