Thanks to everyone who submitted feedback on this project

We received a total of 10 submissions, nine from individuals and one form an organisation.

Overall, the feedback was mixed about the sale of parts of Somerset Reserve and Antigua Reserve.

Submitters supported the sales for the following reasons:

• Providing cycling facilities on Brougham Street will make cycling safer and benefit the community
• Replacing the trees lost two for one is a positive
• The amount of land lost is minimal for high benefit

Submitters opposed the sales for the following reasons:

• Green space is important
• There are already right turn lanes for Selwyn Street
• Losing park space at Somerset Reserve will make it less enjoyable
• Widening Brougham Street will make it less safe for pedestrians and cyclists
