Stebbings Valley Development 2008

Please provide us with a copy of any reports, including outcomes of discussions with Corrections over the proposed Stebbings/Tawa link road since the Northern Growth Management Plan (also called a Framework) was formed in 2003.

Black out any figures so that we can have the discussion, financials excluded.


City Council response

Attached is a report covering a proposal to link the top of Stebbings to Greyfriars. This is headed “Traffic Assessment Greyfriars Cres Tawa Sept 2003”.

This concept received strong opposition from the local community and was subsequently excluded from further consideration other than possibly being a very minor link in the future.

Subsequent planning has favoured a route alongside Arohata Prison. All discussion on this proposal have been met with opposition from prison officials to date principally on security grounds.
