CUSTOMHOUSE QUAY - WATER OUTAGE AND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT

Wellington Water from Wellington Water

Due to urgent pipe repairs, water has been shut off to Customhouse Quay, Waterloo Quay, Featherston Street, and parts of Waring Taylor, Johnston, Brandon, and Panama Streets.

In order to undertake the repair, two northbound lanes have been shut on Customhouse Quay.

Crews are working to repair the pipe as soon as possible, and the issue is expected to be resolved late this afternoon.

Until then, to reduce traffic congestion, please avoid Customhouse Quay and the surrounding area.

Water Tankers are parked on Hunter Street, Lady Elizabeth Lane and Waring Taylor Street – please bring your own containers.

For more info, please see Wellington Water on Facebook.

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!

GOODBYE THE POST - NOT QUITE.

Michael from Trentham

Finally joined the large throng of former The Evening Post, The Dominion and DomPost home and office delivery subscribers and cut out a delivered newspaper. Well almost.

This follows in the footsteps of the Upper Hutt Leader being scrapped from weekly delivery.

Now I am among those who receive a digital copy of The Post on a computer and smart phone and a delivered Saturday- only copy of the same. The savings in costs is close to $800 per year. But that is not the real reason for my cancelling delivery.

The delivery wrapped-up newspaper (which can occur as early as 11pm) was being thrown either onto the driveway and skidding onto flowers lining the driveway or direct hits onto the sunflowers.

The Post has become a shell of a major capital city daily newspaper. It is almost not and local regional news - especially sport - is usually non existent.

The name is not good. Google The Post and you get a host of NZ Post sites which are entirely unrelated. The Post is a featureless name. The Dominion (or The Dom for short) had character as a name and a history as a newspaper in Wellington.

Just a thought: The Harvey Norman News Bulletin sounds relevant.

The Evening Post at its zenith and even with the competition of the morning paper (The Dominion) was NZs best selling newspaper with a relative huge home delivered demand.

But where I have lived for the past 4 years or so, I may have been the sole resident receiving The Post in a radius of 300 metres of housing north, south, east and west.

We're talking new year resolutions...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
