Inner West street improvements history

The Inner West Network were three fabulous street improvement projects initially proposed in 2016, which linked together and into the existing cycle network. Two of the three projects, Great North Road and Pt Chev to Westmere, have been given the tick and will begin later this year 2023! The Waitematā Safer Routes section is still on pause while Auckland Transport seek further funding.

On this page we give an overview of the history of the project and the thousands of hours community individuals and organisations have put into making this happen.

‘We’ve shared your stories over the years, to show the immense diversity, enthusiasm, demand and sheer potential for everyday cycling by all kinds of Aucklanders. We’ve empowered you to connect and take action at the local level, to grow confidence for cycling in your neighbourhoods, and to raise your voices for the safe streets and vital connections we all deserve.’
