Murray Halberg Park Land Exchange

This consultation closed on 8 March 2021.

Proposed land exchange at Murray Halberg Park, Owairaka

Kāinga Ora (formerly Housing New Zealand) is redeveloping the area surrounding Murray Halberg Park in Mt Albert.

We are proposing to exchange 402 square metres of Auckland Council land for 210 square meters of Kāinga Ora land.

Of the 402 square metres of land, 278 square metres will go to Kāinga Ora and 124 square metres will go to Auckland Transport.

What the land exchange would mean

These developments present opportunities for Auckland Council to improve the amenity and functionality of existing open space.

The proposed land exchange will go towards:

• increased accessibility with additional road frontages
• enhanced amenity value and functionality
• improved sightlines into the park with better environmental design for safer, more visible spaces.
