Abstract

District plans have the potential to contain planning instruments that may provide for activities that have direct effects on road safety. Conversely, district plans also have the ability to provide mechanisms to address these effects. Given that the preparation of district plans is at different stages of development throughout New Zealand, it is possible for input to be made into district plans and the planning process through best practice guidelines. Councils have the ability to use best practice guidelines for a number of purposes for example as part of the assessment criteria for assessing resource consents, or to flag that a particular development project needs to be scrutinised by traffic engineers to determine the actual and potential effects on the roading network. Transfund New Zealand commissioned Tonkin & Taylor Ltd to undertake a project to explore the need for best practice guidelines for road safety provisions in district plans and then develop the guidelines, if they were deemed necessary.
