Preparing for the future - more options for more people
The changes will make it safer and easier to walk, scoot, bike, or take the bus to schools, workplaces, sportsgrounds, community facilities, shops, cafes, and businesses.
Berhampore and Newtown are places where a lot more people will be living in the future - close to the central city and Wellington Regional Hospital’s campus, with access to shops, schools, cafes, Massey University, Te Whaea, Wellington Zoo, parks, and the Town Belt. Wakefield Park is a regional centre for sports and recreation.
Many Wellingtonians commute from other suburbs to work at the hospitals, travel to hospital appointments or to visit patients.
Connection from coast to coast
The improvements for people on bikes using The Parade, Adelaide Road, Luxford Street, Rintoul Street, and Riddiford Street will complete the 6.3km safe cycling route between the south coast and central city.
