The Christchurch City Council is committed to the support of pedestrians and the encouragement of walking as a method of travel and for social recreation. Emphasis will be placed on the integration of pedestrian needs into all projects carried out by the Christchurch City Council.
The Christchurch City Council will work to create a City in which:
- The pedestrian environment is friendly, safe and accessible.
- More people walk, more often.
- All pedestrians are able to move about freely and
with confidence.
A Pedestrian Strategy document has been developed to outline the vision of Christchurch as a pedestrian friendly city and the actions for achieving this vision. The strategy document will be reviewed and updated every three years, an implementation plan will be developed to seek appropriate funding through the Annual Plan process and a monitoring report will be presented every three years.
