Quay Street upgrade

The new, wider footpath outside the Ports of Auckland entrance. The Quay Street upgrade has created a safer, more attractive and well-connected pedestrian route between the viaduct, Vector Arena and Tamaki Drive.

Completed in 2007, key features include:

  • new pohutakawa trees to reflect coastal vegetation
  • new footpaths, street furniture
  • an extension of the cycleway linking the ferry building with Tamaki Drive
  • lighting improvements
  • restoration of the historic blue fence around the landing.
The upgrade is a part of Auckland City Council's 10-year programme to transform and revitalise the CBD to create one of the world's most vibrant and dynamic business and cultural centres
