City Centre projects

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

Greener spaces and a striking new artwork are about to upgrade Red Square into a great place for people of all ages.

Public car parks and a new laneway are coming to 79 Grey Street.

Te Hononga ki Te Awanui, connecting Memorial Park to the city centre through a coastal pathway, will provide more opportunities for the community to connect with Te Awanui Tauranga Harbour.

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.

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.

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

A sustainable development set to house all Council administration staff under one roof.

As part of our exciting plans to get the heart of our city pumping, we’re building a new library and community hub in the city centre on Willow Street.

The Tauranga Museum will be a key component of Te Manawataki o Te Papa, the transformed city centre in the heart of Tauranga.

The northern area of our waterfront is turning into a welcoming reserve area for everyone to enjoy.

We reviewed our three key sporting facilities, Baypark, Blake Park and Tauranga and Wharepai Domain to see how they met the needs of particular groups, and how we could make them better and more accessible for everyone in the community.

We’re starting to think about how we use and make the most of Memorial Park in the future, alongside the planned upgrade of the aquatic and recreation hub facilities situated at the park.

Tauranga City Council is looking at the future use of the Crown-owned Tauranga Racecourse Reserve in Greerton.

We’re building a new playground, alongside the waterfront in the city centre, for our whole community to enjoy.

The newly upgraded Beacon Wharf is open for the community, restoring an important connection to Te Awanui Tauranga Harbour.
