If you would like to have some input, you can see a copy of the draft on the PNCC website at the following link http://www.pncc.govt.nz/yourcouncil/councilactivities/councilinitiatives/street-designs-initiative/

Feel free to submit your own response, or email any thoughts or comments that you have to katherine.stannard@pncc.govt.nz for inclusion in the Bike Manawatu submission. 

Submissions close on 5th July.

There is a public presentation about the Manual and chance for questions at 5:15pm on Monday 24th June at the City Library Sound & Vision space.

This is an excellent opportunity to have your say on making Palmerston North a cycle friendly city – don’t waste it!”
