Resilience and environment
Te manahau me te taiao
We know Wellington is at risk of earthquakes and other natural events like rising sea levels. We need to be stronger and better prepared for whatever the future holds.
We're proposing to invest in our environment and key infrastructure.
Housing
Ngā kāinga
Up to 280,000 people are expected to call Wellington home by 2043. As our population grows, we want to make sure everyone has access to safe and affordable quality housing.
We’re proposing to take a more active partnering role in this area.
Transport
Ngā waka haere
As our population grows, the pressure on our transport network will increase. Traffic congestion is already an issue for Wellington commuters. We need a solution that makes it easier to get around the city.
We’re proposing to take a more active partnering role in this area.
Sustainable growth
Te kauneke tauwhiro
Our population is growing. To maintain Wellingtonians' high quality of life, we’ve started a programme to help boost the economy.
Arts and culture
Ngā toi me te ahurea
Wellington is New Zealand’s cultural capital, and we want to keep it that way. We want to invest in the arts to create jobs, attract world-class acts and support local talent.
We're proposing a range of initiatives to build on the city's creative strengths.
