Dominion Road is an arterial road in Auckland, New Zealand, running north–south across most of the Auckland isthmus. It is a major public transport route that carries 50,000 bus passengers each week,[1] making it one of the few roads in Auckland on which similar or greater numbers of people travel by public transport than by private car.[2]

The road, which passes through mostly suburban areas (and several town centres), has been described as having a colourful mix of shops, exemplified by areas like the "United Nations of restaurants" around the Balmoral town centre. There are claims that the road's development has been held back by uncertainty about future roading / public transport development plans for the last decade, which prevented investment certainty, and led to low shop rents.[3]

In international popular culture, Dominion Road achieved some fame by The Mutton Birds' 1992 song titled "Dominion Road".[4]
