Transport projects

We are upgrading Taurikura Drive between SH36 and Whiore Avenue to support the growth of the Tauriko area.

Upgrading Cameron Road and the waters network beneath it has an important role to play in providing more homes for people in our city.

We are making Links Avenue a more welcoming and safer environment for the community.

We're making it safer and easier for people to move around our city no matter how they choose to travel – including by bus.

Our city is growing fast. The Fifteenth Avenue, Turret Road and Welcome Bay Road route links many communities and is going to become increasingly important as our city grows.

Providing safe and secure bike parking is one of the ways we can encourage more people to cycle in the city.

Wider footpaths, greener spaces and one-way streets are among improvements being piloted to make the city centre nicer and help people move around more easily.

A new city centre laneway will connect Grey Street and Durham Street.

Intersection changes around Maranui Street, Girven Road and Oceanbeach Road are improving travel between Pāpāmoa and the Mount and increasing safety for pedestrians. 

We’re proposing some safety improvements in Tauranga South, Gate Pā and Merivale to make walking and cycling to and from school and around the neighbourhood easier and safer.

Keenan Road is an ideal location to provide more residential housing to cater for the growth we are experiencing in Tauranga.

Construction of a new interchange over the Tauranga Eastern Link will see Pāpāmoa East connected to the motorway and enable further development of the area.
