Parking In 1980
By 1980 it was estimated that there would need to be 41.000 parking spaces in Christchurch city, a report to the Christchurch Regional Planning Authority said yesterday. Of these. 11.000, or 27 per cent, would need to be onehour spaces, 13,000 would need to be four-hours spaces and 17,000 would need to be eight-hour spaces. If the broad limits of parking provision were met, the authority could recommend the central motorway proposals with some confidence on traffic assignment, the report said. Otherwise, the central network, including the motorways, would be subject to local areas of unnecessary congestion with a chain reaction engendering detrimental changes in the pattern of central city development and movement.
