A plan to aid some of Tauranga's biggest traffic woes is being developed, the Tauranga City Council announced today.
The Transport System Network Plan aimed to understand, design and test solutions to some of the city's key road network problems.
It will initially focus on the identification of options to manage transport issues and to improve access to alternative transport modes on key corridors and parts of the network.
The council's general manager of strategy and growth Christine Jones said the approach used would be similar to models implemented in Auckland and Wellington.
The new plan would work alongside the Urban Form and Transport Initiative to develop, test and design solutions for the city's main transportation issues, so that feasible options could be discussed with the community.
