Aerial view of central Wellington
Wellington City Council is developing a strategic framework for the growth and enhancement of Wellington's city centre for the next 30 years. It is the first time the Council has taken such a comprehensive and long-term view of the city centre.
With help from Wellingtonians, visitors, and local businesses and organisations, the Council is looking to make sure the city centre retains its vibrancy and reputation as a great place to visit, live, work, invest and play.
Throughout the development of the framework, individuals and organisations with an interest in the future of Wellington's central city are invited to contribute ideas and information. There will also be several opportunities for you to formally comment on our ideas for enhancing the central city.
Aims
The aims of the Wellington 2040 project are to:
- identify an appropriate future direction or vision for the central city
- identify key issues facing the central city in the short and longer term
- identify opportunities to add to the success of the central city
- provide a coordinated direction to the Council's investment in the central city
- become the key reference point for all activities within the central city.
