In response to a group of local business owners identifying that their Eastern CBD precinct had no ‘people social space’, the New Plymouth District Council secured funding contributions from Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency’s ‘Innovative Streets’ fund to establish an 18-month trial of a temporary pocket park.
