Wellington's streets are grinding to a halt as our population and car use continue to grow.
We can free up our streets by providing safer and easier options to walk, bike, or bus so that more of us can get places without relying on cars.
We’ve developed Paneke Pōneke to deliver a connected citywide bike network, along with walking and public transport improvements, so more people can get around in climate friendly ways.
Work to revitalise Courtenay Place and fix pipes begins in April 2025. This project will connect people across the central city with a reliable transport system and generous spaces to shop, work and play.
Street changes in Karori will allow bus capacity to double, make it safer and easier for pedestrians, and create better space for people on bikes.
Street changes are now underway to complete the route of bus, bike and pedestrian improvements from Island Bay through Berhampore and Newtown and into the city.
