Overview

The Mangere Bridge area was identified as requiring significant improvements,

The perception of there being a road safety problem is in part a result of sto^et design that allows high vehicle
speeds and does not adequately provide for all road users (e.g. facilitate pedestrian crossing movements),
The quality of pedestrian network facilities has an impact on individual health and road^safety. Poor pedestrian
and cycling facilities can create a perception that the area Is not walkable or safe. This can discourage the
uptake of active transport modes and results in high vehicle use.
the non-provlsion of good quality, well-placed crossing facilities can contribute to the crash record through
pedestrians taking risky crossing movements. A high number of trips being made by car can also contribute
to congestion of an area.

The aim of the project is to improve safety Tor pedestrians and help ensure walking is a desirable option for
people.

80% of all road deaths and serious injuries occur on 50km/h local uri?an roads. Nearly half of those deaths
and injuries involve vulnerable road users - children, the elderly, people walking and people on bikes or
motorcydes. AT is committed to making the roads safer for vulnerable users and these changes will help
improve safety for the many pedestrians including school children walking these routes.

ThisSafer Communities program is aligned with Auckland Transport's AMP 2018, the Road Safety PBC and
the RLTP 2018-28 and contributes to the Transport Agenc/s Investment Assessment Framework, which is
intended to give effect to the Government Policy Statement, and contributes to fiQ objectives of the Land
Transport Management Act (LTMA) by addressing:

Safety - a safe transport system free of death and serious injury:
> Addresses a high predicted walking or cycling safety risk; and
> Addresses a high perceived safety risk to use of the mode.

Access to opportunities, enables transport choice and access, and is resilient - liveable cities;
> Supports increasing the uptake of children using walking and cydlng especially to and from school.
