Dear Cody,

 

Thank you for your email, received on 03.05.2023. You requested the
following information, under the Local Government Official Information and
Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA):

 

“Why are pedestrian median refuge barriers not being replaced? Many have
been outstanding for months - in some cases, for over a year - despite
SnapSendSolve tickets being sent. Damaged ones are being removed, which
suggests that Council is aware of the issue, but then not re-installed”.

 

Please find below a response to your LGOIMA request.

 

The replacement of one refuge barrier at this location is scheduled for
the following month.

 

It can take some time before the replacement process gets started because
these frequently get driven over and we do not always know when they are
damaged until either Council Staff or Contractors report it when
inspecting the roading network. These barriers frequently disappear for a
while because they are removed for maintenance or replacement whenever one
of them is damaged.

 

Snap, send, solve can be used by the public to expedite this procedure
whenever they notice a damaged pedestrian barrier.

 

You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review our
decision. Complaints can be sent by email to
[1][email address].

 

Publication of responses to LGOIMA requests

Please note: our LGOIMA responses may be published on the Christchurch
City Council website a month after they have been responded to, with
requesters’ personal details withheld. If you have any concerns about
this, please contact the Official Information team on
[2][Christchurch City Council request email].

 

Yours sincerely,

Dear Cody,

 

Thank you for your email, received on 15.05.2023. You requested the
following information, under the Local Government Official Information and
Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA):

 

“The response you have provided me is not satisfactory as I have outlined
that all 3 refuges are damaged. Council is clearly aware of this as all 3
have been partially removed, yet you have outlined that only 1 is
programmed for replacement.”.

 

Please find below a response to your LGOIMA request.

 

Only one of the three pedestrian median refuge barriers on Awatea/Wilmers
is scheduled for replacement as part of routine maintenance. The team will
check on the other two during the week to see how they are, where they
are, and whether new ones are needed. 

 

You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to investigate and review our
decision. Complaints can be sent by email to
[1][email address].

Dear Cody,

 

Thank you for your email, received on 27.06.2023. You requested the
following information, under the Local Government Official Information and
Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA):

 

“CCC replaced a different refuge on The Runway within a few days or so
after reporting using SSS. I separately reported the three referenced
herein, as you asked, on SSS - these remain unreplaced.

Hence, my question still stands - which was "Why are pedestrian median
refuge barriers not being replaced? Many have been outstanding for months
- in some cases, for over a year - despite SnapSendSolve tickets being
sent”.

 

Please find below a response to your LGOIMA request.

 

We have contacted the relevant contractor and asked them to order in and
replace the required median refuge barriers on Awatea/Wilmers. Thank you
for bringing this to our attention.

decision. Complaints can be sent by email to
