In its southern reaches the redevelopment of the Hobsonville airbase is home to a new primary and secondary school, new business opportunities and a new ferry terminal.
The development of State Highway (SH) 18 has led to significant work on planning of the Hobsonville corridor and the Hobsonville village area.
