An update on the Woolston Village Upgrade 

Kia ora from Woolston Village Upgrade team.
We're excited to announce that we've appointed Citycare Ltd as the lead contractor for the Woolston Village upgrade. Our next steps are to hold a Meet the Contractor session with the local community before starting work in late July. You can expect to see us out and about around the village, preparing signage to let people know how to access the shops and where to park.

Meet the contactor

We're holding a ‘Meet the Contractor’ session at the Woolston Community Library (main hall) at 5:30 pm on Tuesday 7 July to introduce the project team to the local community.
Everyone is welcome to come along and we look forward to seeing you there.

Streetscape upgrade drives Woolston revitalisation

A multimillion-dollar upgrade of Woolston Village will get under way in July. Under the Christchurch City Council’s Ferry Road Suburban Master Plan, the significant streetscape project aims to revitalise the village while keeping the industrial character of the 150-year-old area.

Key features of the upgrade

We’re upgrading Woolston Village and part of Ferry Road. This will make the village a safer and more attractive place to walk, bike and drive. We’re renewing underground wastewater pipes at the same time to minimise disruption to the public.
