Planning

We want to shape great places and experiences for our growing communities.

Our Planning team leads projects that create space for homes, protect our environment and heritage, and inclusive public places, and make a real difference to Auckland.

Quick facts

  • In 2020/2021, 83% of growth took place in existing urban areas, particularly in and around urban centres with existing infrastructure and transport connections.
  • Auckland’s population is expected to reach 2,230,800 by 2053. We need to plan how and where Auckland will develop to support this growth.
