COMMITTED AND INTELLIGENT MASTER PLANNING

AUCKLAND EAST WATERFRONT, NEW ZEALAND

The East Waterfront is a land-locked area, trapped between rail lines and wide urban streets that are designated freight routes to the container port of the city.

The area is, however, the logical and natural expansion zone of the city’s CBD. The outcome of the study, commissioned by Auckland Transport and led by SKM, was a set of design principles and planned upgrades at identified trigger points to facilitate the coexistence of urban and industrial uses, also providing reliable guidance for the management of the corridor and the design of new developments.
