Safe School Streets involves trials of safety improvements at 13 primary schools across Auckland, providing safer routes to school for more than 5,000 children aged 5-11.
Crank is managing the delivery of each project and the programme as a whole. The diversity of street and social contexts has generated significant learning about how to provide safety improvements that encourage walking and cycling at schools.
Safe Schools has led Crank to develop approaches to manage multiple concurrent tactical urbanism projects and systems that support procurement, triaging of feedback, and trial refinements at scale.
Tactical Urbanism trial including cycleway and improved pedestrian safety in a complex town centre environment.
Trial to 'stitch' together two adjacent green spaces by transforming a street to open public space.
Pilot programme engaging 80 young kids in friendly competition to log over 2,000km in walking and cycling trips to school.
This project takes a fresh approach to community engagement, starting with public events that aim to understand attitudes to cycling and identify possible participants for a series of Collaboration Forum to generate community-fed options for local cycling improvements.
Trial to one-way traffic while improving safety for pedestrians and introducing mana whenua art into the town centre.
