Kia ora Wellington,

A burst pipe has caused flooding on Kent Terrace, between Vivian Street and Buckle St (approximately).

Crews are onsite, and we're awaiting urgent traffic management so we can undertake the repair.

While we wait for traffic management, we're asking people to avoid the area if possible, and if not please expect delays. We appreciate that this is a main route, so are doing all we can to minimise impact on commuters.

At this stage, we don't expect a shutdown to affect any properties but will provide more information as the repair progresses.

It's a major repair and we expect it to take between 8 -10 hours.

We'll keep you updated on our social channels.

Little Symphony Sax Quartet is back at Inverlochy House looking to once again get the lovely art filled walls there resonating beautifully with warm, sonorous sounds.

Their pot-pourri of saxophones, clarinets, bassoon and trombone will take a collective stroll through jazz tinged original compositions that have been inspired by such life experiences as low level synaesthesia, the film Blazing Saddles and meditation. Their set will be finished off with a new game of theirs called “Guess that Toon!”, where the modern day obsession of covering old material is turned somewhat on its head.

Join Little Symphony at Inverlochy House on Sunday 25th of August, they never disappoint!

Little Symphony Sax Quartet is:

Oscar Laven – Tenor Sax/Bassoon
Andre Paris – Alto Sax/Clarinet

Kaito Walley – Trombone

Blair Latham – Tenor Sax/Bass Clarinet
