Pedestrian crossing upgrade on Pilkington Road

Recently we completed a refresh of the Queens Road streetscape as well as an upgrade of Clifton Court, including installation of a new playspace. Our next step is to upgrade the pedestrian crossing on Pilkington Road that connects Clifton Court and the library so that locals can safely cross the road to enjoy these local facilities. 

What are the works that are happening?

The pedestrian crossing on Pilkington Road will become a raised pedestrian crossing. New signage, line marking, pedestrian refuge islands and tactile crossing indicators will be installed, as well as minor kerb realignment and footpath replacement at either side of the crossing.

Construction outside 7/13 Pilkington Road is due to run 7am – 7pm, with works anticipated to finish in late May, weather permitting. Pilkington Road will remain open as a one-way to traffic driving from the Queens Road end during the construction period, with a detour route in place for all other traffic.

A shared vision for the future

Eke Panuku Development Auckland is the council-controlled organisation that delivers urban regeneration in Tāmaki Makaurau – Auckland. We’ve been working with the community and local stakeholders on creating the Panmure Masterplan, a way to redevelop the Panmure town centre over the next 10-years. We are working to enhance it as a great place to live, visit and do business. The works on Pilkington Road are one of many projects planned for Panmure over the next decade as part of this plan.
