Elliott Street Auckland CBD

|

Paving mortar and grouts possessing remarkable performance characteristics and complying fully with the requirements of BS7533. Steintec is the professionals preferred choice of paving mortar systems for the Elliott Street shared space streetscape within the Auckland CBD.

A major characteristic of a street designed to this philosophy is the absence of traditional road markings, signs, traffic signals and the distinction between road and pavement. User behaviour becomes influenced and controlled by natural human interactions rather than by artificial regulation.

Urban planners have long been grappling with the conflict between vehicle and pedestrian but their segregation, which drove the creation of raised roadways, underground car parks and pedestrian shopping centres in the 1960s, has given way more recently to the concept of “shared spaces”.

The “Shared Space” road is a throw back concept in which pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicles are equals in using a road space.

Since the introduction of high performance products to the paving industry, Steintec has set an industry benchmark for the quality of its specialist paving mortars and grouts. All of the paving products from the Steintec accredited range have been proven to comply and exceed the required industry standards of BS7533 and have an extensive track record of success both internationally and throughout New Zealand.
