Location

Edmonton Road, Henderson

Transport involved

Overview

We propose making some improvements along Edmonton Road to create a safer and more accessible environment for people in the area.

This includes a new signalised pedestrian crossing and footpath upgrades, helping people cross Edmonton Road more safely and improving access to Tui Glen Reserve, local amenities and nearby bus services.

Proposed improvements include:

  • upgrading existing median refuge crossing with a new signalised pedestrian crossing

  • installing a new footpath to connect the missing link from Claude Brookes Drive to Edmonton Road

  • installing new road markings, signages and lighting associated with the upgraded signalised pedestrian crossing

  • installing high friction surfacing (coloured).

If you have any questions or comments on the plans, email us at ATEngagement@at.govt.nz (Reference: Edmonton Road Crossing).

Safer road crossing

Easier active travel

Clearer road markings and signage will make it easier and safer to walk and cycle.

Project background

On Edmonton Road, Henderson, where it intersects with Claude Brookes Drive and Matuhi Rise, people must use the median refuge to safely cross the road.

There is also a missing footpath connection on Claude Brookes Drive from Edmonton Road.

Auckland Council proposes improving safety by:

  • constructing a footpath on Claude Brookes Drive where it is missing

  • installing a signalised intersection on Edmonton Road.

This will provide a more connected walking route to local destinations including bus stops, Tui Glen Reserve and Scouts Hall, as well as to key local organisations such as Neuro Connection Foundation, Waitematā Diabetes DHB and Studio Move.

This proposal is supported by community feedback and safety assessments.

Funding is confirmed through the Community Network Improvements Programme.

One of the project’s key risks is that the signalised crossing will be within 350m of another pedestrian crossing on Edmonton Road.
