Traffic engineer appointed

Auckland Transport has now appointed a Traffic Engineer, Dr Glen Koorey of ViaStrada, to review the traffic risk profile for Mission Bay.  His job is to identify any points of excessive risk which might be considered for an engineering solution.  Hisa job is NOT to determine the engineering solutions required, merely to identify whether there are any risks which should be assessed to see whether an engineering solution might be appropriate.

​His report will be provided to the Working Group to discuss and determine whether any engineering solutions are required, and if so, what solutions might work best. The Mission Bay Kohimarama Residents Association is represented on this Working group, along with the Mission Bay Business Association, the Orakei Local Board, and the Orakei Ward Councillor.  We are confident that the Working group can come up with practical and common-sense solutions that improve the situation for all road users, balancing the needs of pedestrians, cyclists and motorists.
