City Centre projects

We’re reviewing the Street Use and Public Places Bylaw 2018. This bylaw sets the rules for using public places.

Help shape the look, feel and flow of our city centre.

As part of our exciting plans to get the heart of our city pumping, we’re building a new library and community hub in the city centre on Willow Street.

The Tauranga Museum will be a key component of Te Manawataki o Te Papa, the transformed city centre in the heart of Tauranga.

We’re looking at making some roading improvements on our main traffic routes to help people get around more easily during construction of some of our major roading and waters projects.

We're making it safer and easier for people to move around our city no matter how they choose to travel – including by bus.

A new city centre laneway will connect Grey Street and Durham Street.

Providing safe and secure bike parking is one of the ways we can encourage more people to cycle in the city.

We reviewed our three key sporting facilities, Baypark, Blake Park and Tauranga and Wharepai Domain to see how they met the needs of particular groups, and how we could make them better and more accessible for everyone in the community.

Our city is growing fast. The Fifteenth Avenue, Turret Road and Welcome Bay Road route links many communities and is going to become increasingly important as our city grows.

Exciting plans are underway to redevelop the civic precinct in the heart of our city.

Wider footpaths, greener spaces and one-way streets are among improvements being piloted to make the city centre nicer and help people move around more easily.
