Kapiti Mana
Area Commander Inspector Tracey Thompson said the
old Hagley Street station has served the community well since the 1960s, but it is time for a modern station which enables a better service to be delivered to our local community.
Staff will move into the new hub over the weekend of 6 December 4 to 6.
The Porirua Police Hub will be operational from Monday 7 December 2020.
From next Saturday December 5 to Sunday 6 December, the front counter (at the old station) will be closed to members of the public for walk-in reports until Monday morning (at the new station).
Aside from the closure of the old station, there will be no noticeable change to local police service levels while the move takes place. Frontline staff will still be responding to emergency calls, conducting reassurance patrols and business as usual.
Ahead of the relocation, a blessing ceremony of the new site will take place next Thursday December 3 with Ngāti Toa Rangatira Iwi and local police.

Some flowers are more attractive to bees than others. Open flowers make it easier for bees to access the pollen and nectar.

Working with local primary schools, the pair put together hundreds of $150 food hampers for families across Hutt Valley, Porirua and Tawa in the lead-up to Christmas.
But this year, their efforts – through their charity, Nourish – are needed more than ever.
This year the charity has demand for 1000 hampers, at a cost of $135,000. It is double last year’s output, a reflection of the increased pressure families are under as a result of Covid-19, the pair explain.
