Decision made

27 March 2025

We’ve made a decision on Deans Avenue crossing

On 27 March, the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board approved the staff recommendation, and the Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board approved the staff recommendation excluding the speed hump on the northbound lane.

The resolutions also included a provision for the northbound lane to be reviewed by the Board after the crossing has been in operation, with budget being held to install the northbound hump until after this review. Staff have also been asked to investigate a corridor study of Deans Ave between Riccarton Avenue and Moorhouse Avenue.

You can read the meeting minutes below, which include the formal resolutions.

What happens next?

We are aiming to construct before May 2025. We plan for this to happen in conjunction with resealing of Deans Ave to minimise disruption.
