The vision 2040

The Auckland Waterfront Vision 2040 was jointly developed by Auckland City Council and Auckland Regional Council with Ports of Auckland in December 2005. It outlines the planning framework for the whole CBD waterfront area.

The vision was formulated after extensive public consultation. The vision recognises the CBD waterfront's importance to Auckland and the major role the port and the marine and fishing industries play in the city's and the region's economic success. The vision contains key planning and design principles for specific areas of the waterfront, based on public feedback.
