    • Te Tai Ohinga Artwork Submissions
      • We want your artwork in our new youth Hub - Te Tai Ohinga! We are on the lookout for original art made by young people to feature in Te Tai Ohinga, Wellington’s new central city youth hub. You can learn more about the project by visiting Te Tai Ohinga’s Instagram or the Wellington City Council Website. Submissions close 11.59pm 31 July 2024 The Opportunity Artwork Display: Five pieces of artwork created by rangatahi aged 13-18 will be selected by a panel of young people to be printed and displayed in Te Tai Ohinga. Each selected artist will receive a $200 Prezzy card to acknowledge their contribution. Digital/Physical Collection: All submitted artwork may be featured in a digital and or physical collection celebrating your artistic talents, stories and contributions that have helped bring Te Tai Ohinga to life. Getting Inspired The name Te Tai Ohinga was gifted by Kura Moeahu, Chairman Te Rūnanganui o Te Āti Awa and we encourage you to turn to this as inspiration for your piece. "Te Tai refers to the tides of the sea, and Ohinga is a word referencing young people which is derived from Taranaki, speaking to the opportunity for rangatahi in Pōneke to make a resurgence now that a safe space has been created for them to hang out. It also captures the idea that there will always be young people in Pōneke, just as the tide will always ebb and flow." - Kura Moeahu. The meeting rooms in Te Tai Ohinga also take inspiration from te ao Māori through low and high tide, and, waxing and waning moon which also tie into the theme of the space: "The tides high and low, the moon waxing and waning, speaks to duality, there cannot be one without the other, and are metaphors for real life experience of every human who goes through teenage hood, with high tides come lows, with bad phases come good." -Tama Ale Samoa While designing Te Tai Ohinga, you told us how important it was to feel represented in the space. We are actively seeking artwork that celebrates the rich diversity of our community and especially welcome pieces that represent stories from the following communities: Māori Pasifika LGBTQIA+ Disabled Refugee/Migrant Entry Requirements To be eligible you will be between 13-18 years old and live in or have a strong connection to Pōneke Wellington. Your piece can take any style, it can be painted, drawn, photographed – or any other method that inspires you.

You will be asked to upload your piece to the form (PDF format preferred). This could be a scan of your work or original digital piece. Alternately you can drop physical entries to Te Pokapū Hapori (105 Manners Street) during opening hours.

    • Ohiro Road South Improvements
      • We're proposing safety changes to Ohiro Road, Brooklyn. These changes aim to create a safer and more efficient road environment for all residents and road users. The proposed safety improvements include: Building upon the collaboration with the community and local business, and the commitment to safety improvements, the Council are proposing the following changes: Creating a legalised bus stop. Providing a dedicated buffer zone for cyclists. Creating 2.1 meters of designated Parking spaces. Installing Broken yellow lines to prevent unauthorised parking. Shifting the centrelines to accommodate the proposed changes. You can see the full list of changes laid out in the proposed plan documents. Background: The Transport Engineering and Parking team has received concerns from residents regarding vehicles parked on the footpath of Ohiro Road (217-507 Ohiro road). These vehicles narrow the footpath, leaving insufficient space for pedestrians with wheelchairs and prams to pass through. Residents are requesting the reinstallation of road markings to encourage people to park on road rather than on the footpath. After conducting our investigation, we held a meeting with ward Councillors and resident association members to discuss parking issues on Ohiro Road. We also conducted a parking survey to determine the number of illegal parking instances on Ohiro Road. You can see our findings linked in the document section. We want to hear from you We're looking for your perspectives on the proposed Ohiro Road improvements. There are a number of ways you can let us know what you think: You can submit your feedback in the submission box below. You can also email your thoughts directly at ohirosouthintersection@wcc.govt.nz You can have your say between Wednesday 22 November 2023 and 5.00 pm, Friday 8 December 2023 What will happen next After this engagement period, our team will carefully assess all the feedback received, and consider any necessary amendments before proceeding with the Traffic Resolutions consultation. If you have any questions or concerns about this project, please email us at ohirosouthintersection@wcc.govt.nz
