Dampier BayDevelopment of Dampier Bay will create an engaging and vibrant waterfront with public access and connectivity between Lyttelton, the Inner Harbour and the recreational areas at Naval Point.

1

Recreation linksWe are already working to identify opportunities for safe recreational links. For example, we are keen to see our land between the Urumau and Buckleys Bay Reserves be used for tramping and mountain bike trails.

Container terminalOur long-term plan for a modern container terminal at Te Awaparahi Bay is key to the Port Lyttelton Plan as this enables the port to move Inner Harbour general cargo onto Cashin Quay. The new terminal will require approximately 30ha of reclaimed land at Te Awaparahi Bay.

5

Cruise shipsCruise ships are part of a growing tourism sector for Canterbury. We are considering how to cater for cruise ships in a commercially sustainable way. Part of this involves looking at Inner and Outer Harbour development options.

Naval PointThe bulk fuel berth is a critical part of the energy infrastructure of Canterbury. A number of options are being considered, including Inner and Outer Harbour options. We are also considering options for new wharves between the existing bulk fuel berth and the Dry Dock.

3 General cargoThe movement east of the container terminal will allow some general cargo operations to move onto the current container terminal. This will mean the storage and loading of general cargo will predominantly occur on Cashin Quay.

Inner HarbourThe Inner Harbour is an important part of the port’s operations and will remain so in the future. However the Port Lyttelton Plan will allow us to move some operational activities out of the Inner Harbour.

Key

DredgingInternational trends are towards larger ships and to be competitive we need to deepen and lengthen the navigation channel. We have prepared a resource consent application and are focused on progressing this important development project. A number of rebuild and enhancement projects will also require capital dredging and disposal of spoil.

OUR LONG TERM VISION

The Guide will facilitate the design of appropriate and high quality developments. It will address how new buildings and public spaces will maintain and enhance the historic, maritime and industrial character of Lyttelton Port and incorporate Ngāi Tahu cultural landscape values. The key principles to be covered by the Guide are grouped under the following themes:• Local design cues• Site layout and access • Building design• Public spaces

In 2015 the Lyttelton Port Recovery Plan was adopted. As part of this a Design Guide is to be prepared for Dampier Bay. The Guide will assist with understanding the new provisions in the District Plan that relate to new buildings and public amenity areas. The Guide is to be prepared by the Lyttelton Port Company, in collaboration with Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke, the Christchurch City Council and the community.

Dampier Bay - past, present anD Future

VisionToday

Lyttelton township, the Port and Harbour have a long and recognised history of human occupation and settlement. Whakaraupō – Lyttelton Harbour is recognised as having a rich history of Ngāi Tahu land use and occupancy. Lyttelton Port is the site where the first European settlers arrived in Canterbury.Dampier Bay sits within Port land. As the Port rebuilds there is an opportunity to develop Dampier Bay as a public open space and commercial area, improving public access. The vision is:

HisTory

“To create an engaging and vibrant waterfront with public access and connectivity between Lyttelton, the inner Harbour and the recreational areas of Naval Point.”

New buildings and spaces should enhance the existing character the Dampier Bay context, by interpreting the history, landforms, land uses, structures, materials and colours in future development.

What goes whereDampier Bay will provide a mix of activities to support the operation of the Port, the new marina and a vibrant public waterfront.

Quality access and connectionsA key aspect of the Dampier Bay development is achieving quality access from the town centre, along with a safe and attractive network of routes within the site for all users.

Well-integrated car parking will minimise the visual impacts on adjoining residential areas and promote a quality pedestrian friendly environment.

Create positive relationships between buildings and spacesLocate buildings alongside the promenade and ensure that ground floor uses ‘spill out’ to activate the space.

BuilDing Design

respond to local building forms, scale and proportionsThe form of new buildings should draw from the local design cues in a contemporary manner. Buildings are anticipated to be one to three storeys high and relatively informal. Use roof shapes that reference the maritime, industrial context or are culturally relevant.

incorporate local materials anD colours

Existing materials and landscape features help to inform the selection of appropriate new materials and colours for buildings and spaces that are consistent with the character of the area.

PUBLIC SPACES

provide a range of Quality public spacesDampier Bay will have a range of public spaces, including a waterfront promenade, green spaces and an internal street. These will provide access for all and allow for a range of activities. They will incorporate Manawhenua values and recycled and local materials, provide seating, play equipment and spaces to relax.

Create a distinctive street and spaces With a Local "Look and Feel"

PUBLIC SPACES

The vision for the internal street is a narrow slow street, which has a local ‘look and feel’ and is pedestrian friendly. To achieve a distinctive public realm, use streetscape elements that have a maritime and industrial "look and feel" and cultural references.
