Last week the RiverLink team released the Request for Proposal (RFP) to market, to begin the process of selecting an alliance partner to deliver the programme.

RiverLink is a once in a lifetime opportunity to transform our city. It will deliver a more resilient, connected, and vibrant city centre with Te Awa Kairangi (Hutt River) at the heart. It will stimulate greater economic growth and development, allow more housing, revitalise our city centre and provide opportunities for local businesses.

A partner will be announced next year. Construction is likely to begin in late 2023 and will be completed in 2027.
