Te whai kia kaha ake ai te hono o Kāpiti
Working towards a more connected Kāpiti

Networks and connections help people get to where they need to be to receive services, and to live fulfilling lives with a sense of connection and wellbeing.

A more connected Kāpiti means:

  • connecting infrastructure such as roads and public transport
  • having physical spaces to connect in like community facilities
  • promoting activities that connect our people.

Feeling connected as a community helps make the Kāpiti Coast what it is. When surveyed, 97 percent of residents agreed they felt a sense of belonging in the community.

Kia hāereere ō tātou tāngata | Keeping our people moving

Access and transport are a significant part of what Council does. We have 31 percent of the working population commuting outside of the district for their work, so good transport is critical for our sustainability and economic development goals as well.

We want to have a transport network that:

  • accounts for the growth and change in our population make up over time
  • is affordable and accessible for all as an end-to-end journey
  • reduces the risk of serious death or injury
  • is resilient to possible disaster events and minimises the impact on our environment

Kia honohono ō tātou tāngata | Keeping our people connected

We want people who live in Kāpiti to feel connected to others as well as to the services they need. Council provides and maintains a variety of community facilities and open spaces for people to connect in from playgrounds, pools and sports grounds to cultural and heritage buildings, arts spaces and libraries. Importantly, we also support community services through:

  • Community financial support programmes
  • Youth development, older persons, and accessibility projects
  • Community advisory groups support
  • Food security and resilience programme
  • Community and neighbourhood projects
  • Diversity and inclusiveness projects
  • Community safety projects
  • Social investment and sector capability building.

We work with our mana whenua partners across our work programme to deliver work that supports the cultural connections of Māori in our district.
