Investment in CRL transport infrastructure has unlocked an opportunity to develop exemplary, sustainable urban growth on public landholding around CRL stations at Aotea, Karangahape and Mt Eden.

Together, CRL Ltd and its sponsors are creating a development programme for each precinct. Development programmes enable quality, compact urban growth that maximises the amount of residential, business and recreational spaces within walking distance of public transport infrastructure while leveraging off investment made in rapid transit. This year, CRL Ltd delivered development options to its sponsors as well as a value capture strategy and master plans for each station precinct.

Now that the groundwork for oversite development has been laid, planning for community and stakeholder engagement can begin, as well as finalisation of a development response programme for the station precincts, confirming next steps and appointing a delivery partner.
