City centre projects

To create an accessible city centre we need to prioritise frequent, reliable public transport services through the area, supported by high-quality stops close to main destinations.

We’re upgrading the Dive Crescent car park as part of our plans to revitalise the city centre and transform the waterfront in this area.

Exciting plans are underway to redevelop the civic precinct in the heart of our city.

The Council approved the establishment of a new Council Controlled Organisation (CCO) that will govern and lead the delivery of the civic precinct redevelopment on Monday, 12 December 2022.

The Commission approved the establishment of a new Council Controlled Organisation (CCO) Charitable Trust that will own the land referred to as ‘Site A’ of the civic precinct on Monday 3 October 2022.

Tauranga is growing, and it is expected that in 30 years our region will have 269,000 residents and an additional 35,000 new homes. 

We’re carrying out precautionary earthquake strengthening works on the Spring Street parking building. The parking building will have limited casual parking over the construction period.

The proposed coastal pathway will connect Memorial Park and the city centre, and strengthen the connection of the community with Te Awanui Tauranga Harbour.

We’re upgrading Elizabeth Street to create an attractive and safe, people-friendly environment for everyone to enjoy.

We’re preparing to upgrade the eastern end of Elizabeth Street and the walkway down the hill to The Strand.
