It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

If you’ve popped over to Mt Cook recently you might have spotted Wellington Water hard at work on the Omāroro Reservoir Pipelines Project.

The new 35 million litre Omāroro reservoir will more than double the city’s water storage supply to meet the demands of an increasing population in the inner city, as well as making sure we have enough water in the event of a disaster or disruption.

To enable this work to be done there will be stop/go system in place along sections of Wallace Street from 24-26 July between 9am-4pm to protect workers and the public while they upgrade local pipes. Please avoid the area if at all possible during these hours.

Safe, supervised pedestrian access will be maintained while stop/go is in place.
