15 April 2023, 12 noon - 9pm
Last year, the Whau Local Board won $300,000 from Waka Kotahi to deliver a series of car-free events in Avondale town centre.
The “Open Streets” project is a global initiative where streets are transformed into public zones for people to walk,
cycle, socialise and celebrate. The project opens public spaces to other forms of transport beyond motorised vehicles.
This demonstrates a commitment to creating a greater balance in transport options and the importance of community
in the development of Auckland’s transport infrastructure.
Four Open Streets events are floated for 2023 to be delivered through a co-design model with local event organisers.
The first of these events is on 15 April with the Whau Arts Festival (see over). Roads in Avondale town centre will be carfree for a few hours through temporary road closures, opening the street for people to walk, ride their bikes, scooter or
roller-skate.
Please let us know a.s.a.p. if you foresee any problems, so that they can be mitigated. Otherwise, we hope you will see
this investment in Avondale to be a wonderful opportunity to bring foot traffic to our streets.
The map below shows the temporary traffic management that will be in place for the duration of the event. For
questions about the road closure, please contact:

The dogs are left on a rope / chain, from puppy until adult through winter to summer, most of them are without shelter and starved 💔
Imagine eating, sleeping, defecting, urinating, and walking… in the same circle… for years.
