PNCC

Petition to support the upgrade of Featherston Street https://www.change.org/p/finish-featherston-street-upgrade The goal of PNCC is to create a connected, safe city where it is simple to get around by wheelchair, mobility scooter, bike, bus, or foot. Streets Ahead Palmerston North helps achieve this goal. In addition to fostering community and bettering physical and mental health, this urban design lowers car emissions. The improvement of Featherston Street, which sees heavy automobile, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic in addition to substantial school traffic and a high injury rate, is a crucial initiative in this goal. The completion of this renovation is essential for a safer, more connected city, even if change can be intimidating, particularly for workers and residents on Featherston Street. It is an essential part of the Urban Cycle Master Plan and is consistent with Long Term Plan Goals 1, 3, and 4. By signing this petition, we at Palmerston North support the idea of a secure, connected urban environment for the future by pleading with PNCC to complete the Featherston Street project from Botanical Road to Vogel Street.
