The footpath on the eastern side of Dunns Crossing Road is being widened.
Gearing up for the new school term
One of the NZ Upgrade Programme components is for a new roundabout at the state highway intersection with Dunns Crossing Road.
This reinforces use of the arterial road on the western periphery of Rolleston, but traffic could have an impact on people accessing the adjacent West Rolleston Primary School as raised by many through consultation feedback.
Waka Kotahi have been working closely with the school principal and Selwyn District Council to come up with a package of work to minimise these risks. The first stage of these improvements outside of the school is underway.
Contractors have been hard at work to complete safety improvements on Dunns Crossing Road in time for the new school year at West Rolleston Primary School.
The footpath on the eastern side of the road is being widened and upgraded to a shared path for walking and cycling. No-stopping lines have also been installed.
The work is the first of a series of improvements to local roads by Selwyn District Council to support the highway upgrades and ensure the whole transport network works effectively.
