The four cities have been under a sprinkler ban that was introduced in mid-February due to particularly dry conditions.
Thanks to the response from the community, and the change in season, the region’s storage lakes are now in good shape.
This means restrictions can now be eased to allow for the limited use of garden sprinklers and irrigation systems. This is a good position to be in, but it’s important that people keep being responsible with water usage.
Watering restrictions are still in place, these allow the use of a single sprinkler or irrigation system, between the hours of 6-8 am and 7-9pm only on alternate days according to your house number.
Sprinkler use is permitted at:
• odd-numbered houses on odd dates (1st, 3rd, 15th etc)
• even-numbered houses on even dates (2nd, 4th, 18th etc)
only between the hours of 6-8am and 7-9pm.
This restriction level will remain in place until further notice, or the end of Daylight Savings (5 April 2020) – except in Upper Hutt, where this restriction remains in place all year round.

During lockdown it's important to keep your dog on the lead when you go for walks, even when visiting an off-lead area or designated dog park. This helps you and your furry friend to stay safe by staying two meters away from other walkers.
