We will be shutting down the water supply in Welcome Bay from 10pm tonight to conduct emergency repairs on a damaged water main. The shutdown will affect a large area of Welcome Bay, impacting about 850 properties. The streets that will be affected are available here: www.tauranga.govt.nz...
We'll work overnight to get the water back up by 5am tomorrow morning.
