City Centre Safety Hubs

Safety Hubs are in place to provide additional safety support at key locations across the city centre. These have come about following a pop-up trial during FIFA Women’s World Cup that we partnered with Community Patrols NZ on.

They are places people can go to if they need support. It could be a simple need such as charging a phone, help connecting with emergency services, or some guidance around getting home.

Community Patrols NZ volunteers and Watene Māori O Akarana wardens operate from the hubs and are supported by the Police.

Additional hubs on Queen Street, High Street and Karangahape Road are expected to be established by the end of October 2023.
