About the Project
June 2020
Places for People is part of Waka Kotahi’s Innovating Streets Pilot Programme. This project has offered the opportunity for us to test this new approach to co-design with the community, to trial the parklets and get local insight and feedback in real time.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Urban Mobility Programme Manager Kathryn King says the Innovating Streets pilot fund supports quick, low-cost interim improvements that create more people friendly spaces in our neighbourhoods.
“By using a ‘tactical urbanism’ approach to test what works for communities we can create attractive, vibrant places that make space for people and help to support local businesses. We’re pleased to support this project through the Innovating Streets pilot fund.”
