We recently trialled a temporary lane closure around Christchurch’s Hospital Corner to investigate how we might increase on-street car parking around Christchurch Hospital.
The trial was from Wednesday 25 October to Wednesday 8 November 2023. During this two-week trial, we closed a lane on Riccarton Avenue and Hagley Avenue to test the impact of creating more on-street car parking by closing a lane.
We're now analysing the data we captured during the trial and will provide this to the elected Council in mid-2024 so they can decide the next steps for car parking in the area.
