So far our crews have laid 200m of new pipe as we work to replace the 1km section of fragile pipe between the Whitford Brown interchange and Paremata.
This work is the first phase of a staged approach to upgrade the wastewater main from Paremata to Porirua (4.5km), which is essential for future growth in the area.
You may notice shoulder closures and temporary barriers in place to protect the worksite, but we won’t need to close any lanes during the construction of the pipe.
We will need to manage traffic for short periods as we transport equipment to the site, but we will do our best to keep any disruption to a minimum.

During the 2020 lockdown, she gave away over 140kg in fruit from her home orchard. This year, she didn’t have fruit to swap but her vegetable garden was packed with winter crops. “I had masses of broccoli, cauliflower, kale, silverbeet and French sorrel.

Consultations are now open, so have your say on Our City Tomorrow!
⭐ Let’s Get Wellington Moving – Mass Rapid Transit: Public transport that moves more people, more conveniently and comfortably.

I can be a little wary in new situations and meeting new people, so would love an experienced and patient home. One that has the time to put in the extra training I need as I have not had much. I am very food motivated so will pick things up quickly. I can be very puppy like when comfortable around my people so require a home with older teenagers or an only adult home, one that is confident around larger than life personalities. The team here have mixed me with other dogs, so I could go to a home with an existing dog. One that is social and has a similar play style to me. A dog that is happy to share their space and their humans. I have yet to be cat tested. If you think I am the dog for you please contact the canine team for more information."
