Back in April, a team of local creatives were tasked to help ACTIVATE unsafe city spaces on behalf of Hamilton City Council and Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency.
Two-ish months later, the trial ROAD SAFETY scheme - 90% funded by the NZ Govt - is drawing to a close.
These dangerous, vehicle dominated, uninspiring public roads have nearly INSTANTANEOUSLY transformed into unique, accessible spaces designed for pedestrians, wheelchairs (AKA micro-mobility users), e-scooter users and local cyclists to enjoy...
..A LONG OVERDUE civic upgrade to help improve the wellbeing of our city's most frequent "foot-fall" users - and help connect PEOPLE to our INNER CITY spaces ๐งก
How lucky are we to be living in Kirikiriroa right now, to be experiencing this small opportunity to enhance road safety AS WELL AS uplifting the urban city + community environment?
Pretty lucky, we reckon.
And there's still more events to come!
Now is the time to reflect on this funded trial, and get your shoes on and do a walk about - SOAK IT IN - and think about feeding back our experiences to the council.....To ensure they can get more funding from Waka Kotahi - for more transport and community focused projects like this, for the future rangatahi of Kirikiriroa.
Let's give the team + friends a huge round of applause for all their amazing mahi
