We’re planning
for our future
As we shape Rotokauri-Northwest into a connected,
vibrant, attractive and prosperous community, one of
the major projects we’re working on at the moment
is the Rotokauri Arterials Project. This project
ultimately protects the land where our
future transport connections
will go. This will give
Hamiltonian’s a
Rotokauri that’s
easy to live in,
explore and
connect to.
Why do we have
to do this project?
We want Rotokauri-Northwest to be a community
that’s easy to live in, explore, and connect to.
Transport connections form an
important part of this.
Rotokauri-Northwest is the
gateway for the Hamilton
to Auckland Corridor, so
planning for these future
connections is key.
For our Rotokauri-
Northwest community,
this means we are
able to future proof
for anticipated
long-term
development
and growth.
Information
evening feedback
In early April we hit the road and hosted a
drop in session for our Rotokauri-Northwest
community. Prior to this session we had only
been engaging with directly affected landowners
and key stakeholders. Overall, the evening was
a great success with staff having engaging and
meaningful conversations with our people.
Some of the key themes/
takeaways from Interest in the current
the night were: construction works going on
for Te Wetini Drive underpass
and when this project is
planned to be finished.
Timing of works
and when Council
plan on building the
arterial network.
High interest in the
surrounding land use
and development in
Rotokauri-Northwest.
Interest in how the
arterials project will make
it easier to get to The
Base and Central City.
