Dunedin's proposed new CBD makeover revealed
Dunedin wants to become one of the "world's great small cities", and a redesigned central business district is a big part of that plan.
A report from O3 Collective notes there is an opportunity for the city's main street to become a destination ''that people want to spend time in and is a lively and active place to do business''.
The project, to be discussed by the city council on Monday, could include wider footpaths, more seating, increased planting, reduced speed for motorists, and better access to car park buildings.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
