$1.2 billion wastewater tunnelling begins with giant boring machine
Kia ora neighbours,
Watercare’s $1.2 billion dollar project, for the longest underground wastewater tunnel in Auckland has begun.
A giant tunnel boring machine was lowered 40 metres down a shaft by crane, below sea level at the Māngere pump station.
The machine will be used for the Central Interceptor project to build a 14.7 kilometre wastewater tunnel from central Auckland suburb, Grey Lynn to a wastewater treatment plant in Māngere.
The tunnel will reduce wet-weather overflows from central Auckland waterways and beaches caused by stormwater during heavy rain whilst also adding capacity to the supercity’s growing population.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
