The standard parking restriction applied within the town centre is 120 minutes. • The Blake Street off-street parking area is under- utilised compared to other Council managed off- street parking areas. • Less than 10% of all heavy vehicle movements through Rangiora do not have an origin or destination in Rangiora. • A bypass of Rangiora is not warranted in the short to medium term. • There is little capacity remaining on the main road into Rangiora from the south. • There are more than 2,000 pedestrian movements along the busiest part of High Street between 10am and 2pm. This is double the traffic volume. • The level of pedestrian activity falls away sharply outside the one-way section of High Street. • There is very high demand for pedestrian crossing of High Street, the majority of which (88%) occurs at raised pedestrian crossing points. • The configuration of the road network does not have as significant impact on the parking location of vehicles with different origins. • Vehicles with an origin to the east of Rangiora are only under-represented in the Blake Street off- street parking area. • Less than 15% of vehicle origins are within a 15 minute walking time to the Town Centre.
