Start date

December 2024

End date

December 2026

Location

Albany

Transport involved

Driving, walking and cycling

Overview

Albany is growing, with more land being developed all the time. This means that activity in Albany will increase, as will the demand for parking. Albany must balance growth, sustainable travel, and access to services for everyone. That’s why we’re reviewing how parking is managed, now and for the next 10 years.

We regularly make small changes to parking in Albany but now’s the opportunity to take a big picture look to make sure it all works well together.

Project background

Auckland is growing and changing, and this impacts where people park.

Our streets are under increasing pressure to cater for a wide variety of needs within a finite road space, and simply widening these roads isn’t possible in many parts of the city.

Parking needs to be carefully managed so that our busy main roads can carry as many people and goods as possible, while being dynamic allowing these spaces to meet a variety of users and uses. We also need to ensure parking is available in our communities for those who need it.

In 2023 we updated our parking strategy following a comprehensive consultation process. More than 1,500 Aucklanders shared their views, helping shape a plan that explains how we manage parking and how this supports a better transport system for everyone. The strategy promotes more dynamic use of roads and streets so that road space can be used in different ways at different times of day, depending on travel demand.

We know every area is different. That’s why we regularly review parking across Auckland to identify where smarter parking management can help keep your city moving.
