DIXON ST UPDATE – 12.30PM

We have managed to stop wastewater overflow into the harbour. We managed to successfully configure the network pump stations with the pumps on site, to pump down the storage tanks and are now able to cope with current flow. The system remains limited, and fragile.
Clean-up crews report low levels of visible material at the waterfront; water quality results show high levels of bacteria from Frank Kitts to the Overseas Passenger terminal; low levels at Oriental Bay. The rāhui will remain in place for at least four more days.

Crews are working again worked around the clock, preparing for the overground pipe that will run along Willis St.

We continue to advise people in the district to minimise their water use.

Road closures remain in place – Dixon from Victoria to MacDonald; Willis from Dixon to Vivian; Ghuznee from Victoria to the Terrace, and Vivian overnight (8pm – 8am).

Public response so far has been accepting, but some disgruntlement out there over disruption, the discharge, and impact on daily life. We’re working on ways to step up our engagement, and also looking ahead to the shape of things for the two months or so that the overground solution is in place, while we’re working on the permanent fix.

Road closure clarification: Dixon St will be closed from 9am Monday. Willis St is closed from just north of Dixon St; there will be access to Willis from Boulcott St to just before Dixon St - but no through traffic.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience.

Crews working overnight have managed to divert wastewater flows through an old pipeline.

This means we are able to significantly reduce overflow into the harbour. However, we can’t say for sure the overflow has stopped.

We continue to ask people to stay out of the water in the rāhui area (from Kaiwharawhara to Point Halswell). Harbour water quality testing will continue in the interim.

We are continuing to work through options to ensure we can completely stop the overflow as soon as possible.

We’re really sorry about the inconvenience this is causing to people and traffic.
