We are transforming New Lynn into a vibrant metropolitan centre for work, business, shopping, recreation and leisure.
Our goal for New Lynn by 2030 is for it to be:
There is a range of projects and initiatives to transform New Lynn.
Some projects have already been delivered since September 2010, including:
Opposite the New Lynn transport interchange, the Merchant Quarter features a public car park, a medical centre and an upgraded McCrae Way, which is now a shared space.
Great North Road and Delta Ave have also been upgraded, giving New Lynn residents, visitors and workers a more pleasant and pedestrian-friendly 'high street' to enjoy.
Crown Lynn was originally a clay pits site and will be redeveloped to include a mainly residential, mixed-use neighbourhood built around a stunning new park.
The area has the potential to accommodate up to 1800 new homes and 40,000 square metres of new employment floor area, providing facilities, jobs and high-quality urban environments.
To make New Lynn more pedestrian-friendly, we are creating:
Tiverton Road and Wolverton Street are also getting a major upgrade.
Two lanes in each direction are being created to remove the bottleneck and strengthen connections between New Lynn, Rosebank Road, Lansford Crescent, and the SH20 extension at Mt Roskill.
New Lynn's Clark Street boasts new cycle-safety measures, the first of their kind in the country.
They include raised lane marking and flexible bollards which mark the edge of the cycle lane.
