The Amohia stormwater network upgrade in Paraparaumu has moved into the south-east corner of Kāpiti School’s field, and our contractors are carrying out finishing work in Iver Trask Place.

Traffic on Iver Trask Place has been reconfigured, but the one-way system remains in place for now. Some car parks have been reinstated and our contractors will reopen more as work progresses. Work is expected to reach Rimu Road in mid May.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as our crews progress this important project. It’s part of our plan to reduce flooding in the Amohia and Ruahine Street catchment areas, and help prepare our district to live with more water.
