The vision for the city centre
“By 2032 Auckland's city centre will be highly regarded internationally as a centre for business and learning, innovation, entertainment, culture and urban living - all with a distinctly 'Auckland' flavour.” - Auckland City Centre Masterplan
Auckland’s goals for change and growth in the city centre are set out by council's City Centre Master Plan (CCMP)
It strives for a city that is more people-friendly - welcoming to families, safe and appealing for people walking and on bikes - and respectful of the environment and mana whenua. A place we are all proud of, feel excited about visiting and where we can do business and be entertained.
The CCMP maps out how Auckland’s city centre needs to change to achieve the vision of the bigger picture, city-wide Auckland 2050 Plan, through eight ‘transformational moves.’
The City Centre Action Plan makes sure that the projects and initiatives within the CCMP are delivered in a cohesive, integrated way.
The CCMP recognise that investing in the city centre, and making it a place where businesses are supported to succeed is an investment in the region’s future prosperity. City businesses and residents play a significant role in funding public developments in the area through the City Centre Targeted Rate.
