The Christchurch City Council projects were submitted during the first funding application round for Waka Kotahi’s $7 million Innovating Streets for People pilot fund. “The Innovating Streets for People funding means that we can trial these improvements and see what impact they have. The second funding application round for the Innovating Streets for People pilot fund is due to close on Friday July 3. Waka Kotahi Urban Mobility Programme manager Kathryn King said the Innovating Streets pilot fund supports quick, low-cost interim improvements that create more people friendly spaces in our neighbourhoods. We’re pleased to support this project through the Innovating Streets pilot fund.”
