This new transport corridor was selected as the best performing option as part of the Welcome Bay Growth Options Traffic Management Model (TMM) Analysis, 2018. Desktop analysis was undertaken to assess five separate corridors spread over three sections (eastern, central, western) which will make up the new transport corridor. This analysis has been undertaken to determine the feasibility of each of the corridors from both a cost and planning perspective. The three sections and five corridors are as follows: Eastern section − Corridor E1 connects Victory Street crossing Kaitemako Road and joining Lochinvar Place to connect to Poike Road. − Corridor E2 connects Meander Drive crossing

  • Draft Welcome Bay Community Plan
    The Welcome Bay Community Plan November 2011 The Welcome Bay Project Logo Ko Mauao toku Maunga Mauao is our Mountain Ko Tauranga toku Moana Tauranga is our Harbour Ko Ngai Te Rangi, Ngati Ranginui raua ko Ngati Pukenga toku Iwi Ngai Te Rangi, Ngati Ranginui and Ngati Pukenga are our People Ko Mataatua raua ko Takitimu toku waka Mataatua and Takitimu are our canoes Ko Nga Papaka o Rangataua toku kainga The Rangataua Harbour is our home Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena ra koutou katoa Greetings The logo represents Welcome Bay as a growing, vibrant and evolving community and this is depicted by the large koru in the centre of the logo. The three notches on the left hand side of the central koru represents the 3 Iwi of Tauranga Moana and the four smaller koru to the right of the logo represents all the different sectors in our community; social, economic, environmental and the cultural components that contribute to the wellbeing and aspirations of Welcome Bay’s unique beauty. The turquoise colour represents Nga Papaka o Rangataua, the harbour that sustains us with food, recreation and a rich lifestyle. The purple represents the spirit of the People, the knowledge, passion and commitment that nourishes the lifeline of the past, present and our future as a community. The Welcome Bay Project, the Welcome Bay Community Centre and the Community Project Team acknowledge and thank Quaid Tata who as a local 18 year old woman living with her whanau in Welcome Bay designed the logo for the Welcome Bay Community Plan.
