How do we know if we’re getting it right? We are tracking how Te Rā Nui changes the community and what you think about those changes.

Our spatial plan for eastern Porirua represents the views and aspirations of the community, stakeholders, land owners, iwi and central and local government. It sets the direction for how eastern Porirua (Rānui, Cannons Creek, Waitangirua and Ascot Park) will develop and change over the next 20 years.

The Parks Landscape Plan sets out potential future projects to help us improve our public spaces, to protect te taiao (the environment) and to make our parks safer and more accessible. We created this plan by working with key stakeholders and community.

The community told us that fixing the wastewater pipes in Bothamley Park is a priority. The current pipes are old, and we know when it rains untreated sewage overflows into Kenepuru Stream and Te-Awarua-o-Porirua harbour. This important mahi is now underway.

The community has told us improving the environment is a priority for eastern Porirua. A wetland is a great way to not only improve water quality but also provide different recreational spaces at the bottom (northern end) of Cannons Creek Park
