“Hip hidden away laneway”
Egmont Street is one of the central Wellington laneways that has undergone a bit of a transformation. The charming brick industrial buildings are now complemented by plant and lighting installations and plenty of street art by local talent, plus Egmont St Eatery is always worth a visit.
As part of the laneways project, the upgrade to Egmont Street was designed to make this key pedestrian route safer, more attractive and more inviting – bringing more foot traffic into the lane, supporting local businesses, and creating a clear link between Ghuznee and Dixon Streets.
The design aimed to create a safer pedestrian environment by adding more lighting and slowing vehicle movements in the lane. The surfaces were improved, the existing character enhanced, and outdoor seating and planters introduced.
Egmont Street was transformed into more than just a shortcut, by providing the public with a vibrant and greener urban environment, encouraging growth opportunities for businesses, and a sense of community for local residents.
