Construction on Wellington's controversial Golden Mile upgrade programme will begin on Sunday.
Earlier this year, the Wellington City Council said construction would start in April on the $116 million plan to change Courtenay Place.
It has now confirmed that will start on 4 May, with changes to the intersection of Cambridge and Kent Terraces where work was expected to take eight months before moving to Courtenay Place.
The project will see cars banned from 7am to 7pm on Courtenay Place, along with widened footpaths and a cycle lane.
