Devonport-Takapuna • The local board: o fully support AT’s Lake Road improvements project. o are willing to allocate it’s entire transport capital fund towards supporting the project (approx. $3 million). o are open to discussing a potential targeted rate. • Consistently the number one issue for the community: • 1,200 submissions were received as part of AT’s consultation in June 2017. • 85% of submitters on the local board plan identified that the budget for the Lake Road should be prioritised.
Devonport-Takapuna • Reason for preferred option • Intent to improve people-moving capacity along corridor • Achievable in the medium term • Issues & Risks • Issue: cycling compromise, potentially longer route • Issue: requires change in driver behaviour • Risk: subject to AT funding • Constraints: • Awaiting outcome of detailed business case to finalise scope, funding and subsidies
Maungakiekie- Tāmaki Transport interchange in Onehunga that co- locates the existing bus and rail stations and must not preclude the inclusion of future public transport connections such as light rail . Maungakiekie Tamaki Bus interchange Train station
Maungakiekie- Tāmaki Boar Board d Cas Case e for or init initia iativ tive e Context: • Community feedback • Mass transit coming through Onehunga, EWL, light rail to airport • Onehunga Transform Project – opportunity to address issues, funding • Opportunity cost of acting later – MT is a high growth area, changing • Central government commitment to light rail prioritisation What needs to happen: • Bring together bus and train stations - addresses current problem NOW • Future-proof for light rail – avoid repeating problem we are addressing • Direct AT to prioritise (AT supports this, question of timing ) • Direct Panuku to prioritise reinvestment (Panuku supports this, question of timing) Sharing the solution: • Local board is willing to sell an underperforming local facility in the area • Can contribute AT capital fund (approx 2m)
Maungakiekie- Tāmaki Officer advice - do nothing in short term • Awaiting outcomes of: • Impact of new bus routes and stops • CRL to allow increased train frequency • Decision on light rail • East West Link • Agreement from Auckland Transport and Panuku not to prioritise but keep watch Issues & Risks • Risk: Dominion road signalled as greater priority for light rail

Howick Bring forward development of the multi-use community facility and library at Flat Bush Bring forward budget and development for aquatic facility at Flat Bush Howick
Continued development of the multi-use community facility and library at Flat Bush • Flat Bush has been comprehensively planned as a new community with the town centre forming the “heart and soul” of this rapidly expanding area. Its location next to Barry Curtis Park and the proposed town square forms a strategically critical element of the masterplan which plays a key role in the place-making of this emerging town centre • The facilities are included in the Community Facilities Network Plan as a priority. Feedback from the community on the LTP shows that Howick residents see the multiuse community facility and library as a focal point for the community to come together • Following recent consultation with residents: The most pressing issue for many within the community was the lack of community facilities - one comment was simply “We need this now!”. Budget in the Long-term Plan 2015-2025 (LTP) for the aquatic facility (at Ormiston Town Centre, Flat Bush) to be brought forward from FY2021 to FY2018 • Design concept work can begin and allow for public consultation • The budget is staged over three years from FY2018.
Howick • Reason for preferred option • Execution of existing plans • Needs assessment continues to support the development (gap in the network) • Risks • Risk: Facilities not fit for purpose / mismatch with community need • Risk: Cost escalation during design phases • Dependency • Development of Ormiston Town Centre by Todd Group • Development of Barry Curtis Park
Whau Pool and recreation centre • Supports healthier more active lifestyle • Addresses network gap & reduces current and future pressure on nearby facilities • Addresses equity of Council service • Large land plots disappearing quickly Whau
