What you told us

Through the Share an Idea phase, a number of themes emerged, linking the ideas across the four themes – move, market, space and life. This is what our community asked for: · A city full of people · A destination with exciting things to do and places to visit · Full of green and inviting spaces · Easy to get to and to walk around · Low rise with safe, sustainable buildings that look good and function well · More green in Cathedral Square · Walkways, cycle lanes and things to do along a redeveloped Avon River/ Ōtakaro · A city for all ages and abilities · A business friendly city · A community-led plan · Less cars, less buses, less concrete
