Waka Kotahi and Auckland Council have awarded funding for a community co-design project for Emily Place through the Innovating Streets for People initiative. Your input through the co-design process will provide Auckland Council with direction on how to make Emily Place safer and more liveable. Your co-designs for Emily Place will be trialled in a temporary manner in 2021. The data from these trials will go on to inform the long term development of Emily Place.

This workshop is a public event but has limited spaces so please register on this event page to hold your place.
