Nearly 2000 people, businesses, groups and organisations gave feedback on the future of the Golden Mile during public engagement in June - August this year. An engagement report summarising their feedback has now been published.
A big thank you to the more than 1,000 Wellingtonians who’ve already told us what they think of the three different concepts for the Golden Mile. We’ve heard that some people would like a bit more time to provide feedback, so we’re extending the public engagement for another two weeks.
From this Sunday (19 July), the speed limit on most of Wellington’s central city streets will change from 50km/h to 30km/h (main roads will remain at 50km/h).
Three different concepts for making the Golden Mile better for people and buses have been released for community feedback today.
Today we released three different concepts for community feedback to make the Golden Mile a better place for people and buses. Improving the Golden Mile is an important part of our plans to move more people with fewer vehicles and support Wellington’s growth.
From the end of July speed limits on most central city streets will change from 50km to 30km - making our central city more more pleasant and appealing for everyone, especially for people walking and riding bikes. The final decision was made unanimously by Councillors at Wellington City Council on Thursday.
