Overview

The vision for Hamilton’s West Town Belt is to create "a dynamic, connected and treasured inner-city destination for everyone".

The West Town Belt (WTB) is a large 54-hectare site in the centre of Hamilton and an important public open space that can contribute to delivering the city’s open space needs.  

The WTB has a range of open space functions, including for active and passive recreation, community use, elite sports and sports tourism. It includes two of the city’s three international sports facilities, community sporting and cultural facilities, the Waitawhiriwhiri Gully and the historical Hamilton West Cemetery.

Why your views matter

The Masterplan sets out a 30-year vision for the WTB, to help ensure consistent and well-informed future decisions. The vision is supported by a set of goals, principles and key design moves. It includes short-term projects that can be implemented incrementally, and longer-term projects requiring more significant and strategic planning. Your feedback will help to shape the final Masterplan.

The projects included are not yet funded. The Masterplan will help to prioritise funding through the 10-Year Plan process.

We recommend you read the document before providing feedback.
