Project in development: Kerbside bike lanes
Why are we doing this?
Councillors approved plans for kerbside bike lanes on Tirangi Road, between Coutts Street and Leonie Gill Pathway, at a meeting in March 2018. This route will connect with other new bike paths soon to be developed in Kilbirnie and to Newtown.
What’s next?
The next stage of this project is to complete the detailed design, construction plans and an independent safety audit. We expect construction to start before mid-2019 but we will be in touch with the local community before this.

Approved solution: Kerbside bike lane on each side of the road
Why this solution?
We’re making the connection between Leonie Gill Pathway, Coutts Street and the airport tunnel safer by putting in bike lanes on each side of Tirangi Road, protected by a raised buffer. To do this, the little-used street car parking spaces on this section will be removed.
Impacts:
- Parking for 24 vehicles will be removed on this short section of Tirangi Road.
- Traffic lanes will be 3.2m wide.
