This paper describes the Auckland City Council's use of a strategic planning approach to develop sustainable and livable arterial transportation corridors. The pilot project’s objective was to develop an integrated and comprehensive approach to corridor management planning and produce a 20-year strategic framework and action plan towards more sustainable forms of development, especially for Auckland's east-west corridor. The east-west corridor runs through the heart of Auckland City and passes through a complex array of different and often competing land uses. The ‘East-west Multi-modal Corridor Study’ seeks to identify, evaluate and decide upon sustainable transport and land use solutions for this corridor by investigatingopportunities for multi-modal transport options, travel demand managementand associated land use measures. The principle conclusion of the pilotproject has been to reinforce the need for a multidisciplinary approach to corridor development.
