Covid-19 Update
As of 11.59pm last night Wellington has moved to Alert Level 4 for three days.
This follows the news of a positive COVID-19 case in Auckland.
As an essential service, our crews will still be out and about making sure that water services for Wellington are still running.
Our people will be using PPE and following physical distancing rules as much as possible. If you see our crews out and about, feel free to wave but please don’t get too close.
If you see a leak or have a problem with your water call your council as you normally would.
Public taps in Lower Hutt will also be closed in line with other public facilities.
Stay safe everyone!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
