A major mixed-use development in South Auckland received fast-track approval, boosting jobs and infrastructure.
The Drury Metropolitan Centre, a 53-hectare mixed-use development in South Auckland, has received fast-track approval from an expert panel, following a 2025 application by Kiwi Property Holdings.
The project, expected to generate over $1.45 billion in economic impact and 3,420 full-time jobs during construction, includes residential, commercial, retail, and community spaces.
It supports broader regional infrastructure investments, including new train stations at Drury, Ngākōroa, and Paerātā, rail electrification to Pukekohe completed in February 2025, and major roading upgrades.
The approval marks the fifth fast-track project this year, part of a government effort to accelerate housing and infrastructure delivery through streamlined processes.
