In February 2024, Council granted resource consent for a residential subdivision at 250-258 Cashmere Road. A condition of this consent was to construct a roundabout at the Cashmere Road and Penruddock Rise intersection.

The roundabout design will include:

  • Pedestrian islands on all approaches to the roundabout with crossing points
  • A 2.5m wide shared path on both sides of Cashmere Road
  • On-road cycle lanes with kerb cut-downs, allowing people to move to the off-road shared path prior to the roundabout if they wish to
  • Speed humps to reduce speeds at crossing points and where on-road cyclists are merging into the traffic lane near the roundabout
  • Relocating the existing bus stops on Cashmere Road closer to the roundabout, to make it easier for people to cross the road to reach the bus stops
  • Landscape plantings

To facilitate the new footpath, an existing tree at the intersection of Brookford Place/Cashmere Road is required to be removed. This tree is currently damaging the existing infrastructure. Two additional trees will be planted elsewhere as per the Council’s tree policy.
