A city fit for the future

We’re rebalancing our existing street space to make it safer and easier for people to walk, ride, and use public transport.

The Ngaio connection is part of the northern route between the central city, Ngaio, Crofton Downs, Khandallah and Johnsonville.  In the future, this route will connect through to other projects as part of Wellington's bike network plan.

Project at a glance

This 2.9km route makes it easier for more people to bike/scoot from Hutt Road up Kaiwharawhara Road and Ngaio Gorge Road to Crofton Road, and up Cameron Street to the Kaiwharawhara Bridle Path.

Bus and bike improvements along the route include:

  • better access to bus stops
  • new raised pedestrian crossings
  • uphill bike lanes (one-way)
  • sharrow road markings going downhill
  • safer speeds around Ngaio village and on Cameron Street
  • some parking removal and parking changes along the route and on side streets, with a staged approach through the business area on the lower part of Kaiwharawhara Road.
