Walking, driving and cyclingOverview
We’re proposing changes at the Mount Wellington Highway and Ryburn Road intersection to improve visibility and make it safer for people turning in and out of Ryburn Road.
Public feedback raised concerns about parked vehicles blocking the view of oncoming traffic, especially during busy times.
To help fix this issue, we’re proposing to install no stopping at all times (broken yellow lines) on the corner of the intersection and remove 6 parking spaces on Mount Wellington Highway.
These changes will:
- improve sightlines
- reduce the chance of near misses
- make movements at the intersection safer and more predictable.
