·  A network of cycle and walk ways throughout the east based around the lower Avon corridor.

·  Including the CCC Avon-Otakaro Cycleway.

·  Provision for dedicated cycle commuter routes.

·  Recreational cycle and walkways – paved dual-function pathways, unpaved walking tracks and rough terrain (MTB) cycle tracks with safe intersections.

·  A network of cycle and walkways that provide for safe local connections to schools, shops and amenities – including provision of additional footbridges.

·  Connections to the CBD and beyond in the west; Bottle Lake Forest, Brooklands, and Waimakiriri Regional Park in the north; and Coastal Pathway, Heathcote and Port Hills in the south.

Considerations:

·  Meeting the maximum diversity of needs.

·  Safety for diverse users.

·  Strengthening community connectedness.
