Traffic Management Plan
The Traffic Management Plan around One New Zealand Stadium is implemented on a tiered system based on the expected attendance to the event.
The Traffic Management Plan (TMP) around One New Zealand Stadium is designed in conjunction with Christchurch City Council, Venues Ōtautahi and the Police.
The primary purpose of the TMP is to ensure safety for all people moving around the stadium. It takes into account the movements of vehicles and pedestrians while also considering risks like hostile vehicles.
The tiered TMP system has been designed to follow the peak timings of people movement around the venue on event days.

Got questions? We’ve answered common ones to help you plan your visit.
How do I access my residential address if it is within the TMP road closures?
Pedestrian access is available to all addresses at all times.
Vehicle access for residents and essential business vehicles is also permitted within the TMP closures. All road closures are monitored by staff from our allocated traffic management staff. Please talk to the staff if you require access.
What access is provided for emergency services?
Emergency Services are in direct communication with the Venue Operations Centre at all times.
This ensures that emergency services have access to the fastest and safest route at any time.
When are the tiers of TMP implemented?
Estimations on event attendance steer which tier of the TMP is established for each event. As the event gets closer. we monitor the ticket sales to ensure we have the correct and safest TMP implemented. If there is a late surge in unexpected ticket sales, we take a nimble approach to step up the TMP tier as required.
How do I provide feedback as a neighbour?
We are always listening to feedback to best understand how the TMP is working. You can fill in the feedback form on this page, fill in the form on the Contact us page, email info@venuesotautahi.co.nz or attend a Neighbours Forum meeting to provide your feedback or ask questions.
Why is a TMP (Traffic Management Plan) required?
The TMP is a requirement from the Police and Christchurch City Council. With high volumes of people moving around the stadium at the start and end of an event, the primary purpose of the TMP is to ensure the safety of all pedestrians and vehicles.
When are Neighbours Forums held?
Neighbours Forum Meetings are held multiple times throughout the year. The meetings are held at the Stadium and provide a collaborative platform to discuss updates, opportunities and feedback. Meetings are notified through our Neighbours Emails. You can sign up here.

How do we review the Traffic Management Plan?
The Traffic Management Plan is constantly being reviewed to ensure it is effectively serving its purpose.
This is carried out in a range of forms including being included as discussion item in post event hot-debriefs, formal TMP meetings between VŌ, CCC and Police, and with feedback provided through a variety of sources.
How does the Stadium monitor its Noise Management Plan?
We have a live noise monitoring both inside and outside the venue (with sensors on the edge of the Te Kaha Precinct) which is fed back to match operations room so we optimise the sound and stay within our Noise Management rules.
The One New Zealand Stadium Noise Liaison Committee ensure we are complying with our requirements.
