Following a safety review of intersections in Auckland, the Great South Road, Alfriston Road and Weymouth Road intersection was identified as a priority intersection for pedestrian safety improvements, particularly within/near the intersection slip lanes. This section of Great South Road is classified as an Arterial Road and is situated between Halver Road and Woodside Road, at the intersection of Weymouth Road and Alfriston Road, in the Manurewa Local Board area.
Project:
This intersection was identified on an AT shortlist as a priority for improving pedestrian safety, particularly near / within the intersection slip lanes. The following improvements are proposed:
• Installation of a raised zebra crossing (on a Swedish-style speed table) at the northern and southern slip lanes
• Installation of high friction surfacing along the northern and southern slip lanes
• Installation of new traffic islands at the northern slip lane
The proposed improvements support the Safe System Approach, by actively reducing vehicle speeds at potential conflict points with vulnerable road users. AT is using the Safe System approach to achieve their Vision Zero goal, where crashes would no longer result in death or serious injury.
This tender has been awarded.
