Mapping flood hazards in Lower Hutt

Jon from Hutt City Council

The most comprehensive flood mapping programme in Lower Hutt’s history is underway – but we need your help.

Draft maps of river and stormwater flood hazards have been prepared. Next week, we’ll start taking the maps to communities across the city, and we’d like people with memories or photos of past flood events to help us make the finished maps as accurate as possible.

So come along to our public information sessions and view the draft maps, learn more about natural hazards and help us to manage flood risk in our city. More information blow.
