Liveable Newcastle

Our neighbourhoods are safe and thriving, with diverse and equitable housing and social and urban infrastructure that supports local living.

Our public places bring people together for active living and social connection. We plan for areas of identified growth and change.

We support the 15-minute neighbourhood concept, where the things we want and need are nearby and easy to access.

Our city is walkable, connected by safe roads and accessible parking, and options for active transport are available, enabling access to services and facilities.

Our community is connected and equitable, and everyone is valued. We use innovation and technology and promote health, wellbeing and equal opportunities to increase residents’ quality of life.
