Omāroro Reservoir Update
In light of ShakeOut, New Zealand's national earthquake drill, we thought we would share the progress of one of our milestone projects; Omāroro Reservoir. 👷
The Omāroro reservoir project is one of the ways Wellington Water is working to make our water network more resilient in the event of disruption or disaster. The new 35 million litre reservoir is set to more than double Wellington City's stored water supply. Our crews have been hard at work and resurrected 34 walls and one column in recent weeks. You can see the sheer scale of the reservoir walls in the photos below! 🏗
Remember, after a big shake the pipes could be broken and while our crews work to repair them you'll need to rely on your emergency stored water supply. We recommend 20 litres of water per person, per day. 💧
Here's Tuesday's teaser!
I’m found in socks, scarves, and mittens; and often in the paws of playful kittens. What am I?

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