Heavy Rainfall

The Team from Wellington Water

As a consequence of the heavy rainfall on Saturday night and Sunday morning along with the high tide, there was extreme flooding that unfortunately affected a number of residents in Porirua. There is more rain in the forecast tonight for residents in Porirua, the Hutt Valley and Wellington. 🌧🌧🌧

Meanwhile, our operations teams are checking known risk areas and are working to ensure that the stormwater networks can perform as well as possible. If surface flooding occurs, please contact your local council.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
