Queen Street, Waiuku pedestrian crossings

We're proposing changes to Queen Street and Kitchener Road in Waiuku. These changes will make the intersection safer and more accessible for everyone.

Engagement outcome

We asked the community for feedback from 4 to 25 May 2026. After carefully reviewing the feedback, we are going ahead with the project as proposed.

We expect to have these changes done by mid-2027.

What we're doing

Before June 2027, we're planning to:

• install a new zebra crossing with tactile pavers outside number 53 Queen Street
• shorten the crossing distance at the Kitchener Road and Queen Street intersection by building out the kerbs
• add new pram crossings with tactile pavers across Kitchener Road
• add high-friction surfacing for the westbound approach to the existing zebra crossing outside number 3 Kitchener Road, making it more visible to drivers
• re-mark and install new broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) and reconstruct footpaths where needed.

As a result of these changes, there will be a net loss of 1 parking space on Queen Street. This will include:

• 3 parking spaces being removed outside 53 Queen Street
• 1 parking space being added outside 48 Queen Street
• 1 parking space being added outside Kitchener Road.
