⚠ROAD CLOSURE – ABEL SMITH/CUBA INTERSECTION⚠

The Team from Wellington Water

As a result of our work in Willis Street, we have been working in Abel Smith, Cuba and Vivian Streets to perform maintenance work clearing out wastewater pipes.

The next stage of work in the area involves lifting a manhole and making some repairs, followed by flushing. In order to do this, we need to close a section of the Abel Smith and Cuba St intersections, highlighted on the map below.

This work will begin on Wednesday 5 February, and is expected to take 1 month to complete.

Access along Cuba St through this intersection is still available, however there will be no access into Cuba St from the Taranaki St entrance into Abel Smith St. Vehicles will be detoured down Wigan St onto Taranaki St and Right onto SH1 and Right onto Cuba.

The intersection will be on 24/7 traffic control signals. Please take care when travelling through the area, and follow the traffic signals, speed limits and detours.

Pedestrian access is still available throughout the work. Cyclists will have access past the site via footpath on the closure side, so will be able to dismount and make their way through site. Those that are using the "open" lanes will use the road as normal following the signals.

NOT ONE REPLY! Occasional cleaner wanted

Neil from Thorndon

This went out to 23,000 people and even with all the people out of work (108,000 on a JobSeeker Benefit in NZ), l haven't had a single reply! Do you know someone perhaps?
The ad reads:
We have a one bedroom Thorndon apartment rented to an MP and he'd like it cleaned every so often (MPs are only in Wellington about six days a month).
If you'd like this job then please call me on 027 499 1212
He will pay $100 for the work.
Neil
