Introduction
Taupō District Council is undertaking a range of roading improvements across the Central Business District as part of the $20.6 million Government-funded Town Centre Transformation Project.
As part of the design work for the project, it has become clear that it would be desirable to restrict or prohibit vehicle movements in some areas. This will enable the transformation of public spaces into people places with a greater focus on pedestrians, and address safety concerns around Taupō Primary School.
There are a number of options that would achieve our goal, but our preferred option is to create pedestrian malls. We encourage you to have your say.
Take a look at our assessment of options and the background information and then have your say via our online submission form.
