Barry Curtis Park development

Location: Barry Curtis Park is at the heart of Flat Bush.

A total land area of 94 hectares, will mean that it will be bigger than the Auckland Domain. The park will be closely linked with Flat Bush's town centre, with the western part of the town centre surrounded by the park.

The vision for the park is to create 'a regionally significant park that reflects the people and cultures of Manukau.'

Status: The park is currently under development, with total completion scheduled for 2022. Read more about the park's development milestones.

Maraetai foreshore erosion mitigation

Location: Between 225 and 265 Maraetai Drive

The Maraetai Beach foreshore has experienced significant damage over the last few years, resulting in the failure of existing protection works.

  • Placement of sand on the upper part of the beach to increase the sand volume and to screen the wall
  • An area of dune planting further to the east, and 
  • Stormwater enhancements.
