What is the Masterplan?

The Masterplan is a Council-developed plan focusing on how the town centre should look, feel and function in the next 30 years, including parking, transport, shared spaces, how to keep Wanaka special.  It builds on previous plans, strategies, and community input.

QLDC has now begun their early insights campaign to engage with the Upper Clutha community and your ideas are a critical part of the process.

These maps show the Wanaka Masterplan study area and the Wanaka Transport Programme study area.
