When the New Zealand Transport Agency was in the process of planning their community engagement campaign – they approached Wonderlab to help with preparing the consultation materials.

A roading project of this magnitude, with a 58km stretch of State highway to be improved, needed very careful consultation with the community and stakeholders involved. A set of oversized AO boards were created, outlining all the various options – maps, visualisations, statements from members of the community. Including a range of support material in the form of banners, newspaper adverts, newsletters, and summary booklets.

All this contributed to a very successful week of community consultations, with much higher participation numbers than anyone anticipated.
