Improving our town centres
Our goal is to create vibrant, diverse and thriving town centres that are easily accessible, reflect the unique flavour of each town’s centre, attract visitors and investment, and have more people working locally in higher paid jobs. The Expressway is here and we need to make sure our two largest town centres, Paraparaumu and Waikanae, remain attractive places for people to do business, invest and spend time.
