Consultation on Bromley street upgrades has now closed. People were able to provide feedback from 9 October to 3 November 2024.During this time we heard from 37 individuals and groups. You can read their feedback and the staff recommendation as part of the agenda for the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board meeting by clicking the link in the box above.

To find out how this influenced the Community Board decision to approve the plan with some additions, you can read the minutes - also included in the link above, or watch the decision being made (2h 2m into the recording).

Work on this project will start in early-2025.

We have a plan to make streets in Bromley safer and more accessible and want your feedback on what we’re proposing.

Last year, we reached out to the community to discuss a proposal to improve traffic safety in Bromley through our Way Safer Streets project. Some of this work was to be funded by central Government via the Climate Emergency Response Fund, which is no longer available due to government’s changing priorities.

Making Bromley’s streets safer is still important to us and the community. We’ve reflected on your feedback and worked with the Waitai Coastal Burwood Linwood Community Board to see how we can utilise the funds we do still have, set aside through the Long Term Plan, to create safer and more accessible streets in the Bromley area.

What we're proposing:

On Keighleys Road:

• Installing nine speed humps, between Keighleys intersections with McGregors Road and Linwood Avenue.
• Bollards on the Cemetry-side of Keighleys Road, to stop vehicles from driving around the new speed humps.
• Cutting down the kerb where parents often drop off their children attending Bromley School and adding in tactile pavers, to make this uncontrolled crossing point more accessible.

On Bromley Road:

• Installing a speed hump at the Keighleys Road entrance to Bromley Road.
• Installing a pedestrian refuge island with updated crossing points on Bromley Road, to make it easier for people to cross to the Bromley Community Centre, playground, and nearby bus stops.
• Installing two speed humps on the approaches to this pedestrian refuge island, requiring us to move the bus stop on the Community Centre side further east.
• Removing approximately 15 on street carparks on Bromley Road to make room for the new pedestrian refuge island and to relocate the bus stop.

Additional safety improvements

We are considering additional things we could do to improve safety in Bromley and will consult on these at a later stage. Sign up to Kōrero mai | Let’s Talk (at the top right of this webpage) to be notified when consultation opens on future safety improvements that affect you.
