The Dunedin Amenities Society

Your chance to provide feedback to the DCC

This project is now live and operational.
Many folk will have viewed it and even walked or cycled the sections of road (Queens Drive from the end of Preston Cres to Braid Road and Braid Road up to Ross St) which are now closed to vehicular traffic.
You may be residents in the Belleknowes and Mornington areas who have formerly travelled along these closed sections of road by car regularly to get from home to the centre of Dunedin and vice versa and now need to detour via a longer route to get to your destination.
What do you think of the project? Is it a good or bad idea?
The Dunedin City Council has invited feedback from the public on this project. Here’s your opportunity to voice your opinion. The link to the questionnaire is as follows:
