This involved removing the collapsed material, strengthening the area with concrete and grout injections, building a wall inside the adit and filling it to make it secure. During the adit works we also took the opportunity to renew wastewater and stormwater pipes along the upper section of Dixon Street.
Our thanks to the residents, businesses and public for their patience during this project, as well as all the engineering and front line crews who worked on it.

Rugby League: a New Zealand history
Date: Wednesday 12 August 12.10pm - 1pm (Lunchtime talk)
In this talk, historian Ryan Bodman will explore the value of social media as a 21st century history-research tool. Over the past five years, Ryan has been researching and writing Rugby League: A New Zealand History, which is a social and cultural history of the football code in New Zealand. As part of this project, he has developed a social media account under the same name, which promotes public engagement with his research outputs and has brought a collaborative component to his research process. In this talk, Ryan will explore the use of social media in the development of his book, paying particular attention to the value of social media to academic historians seeking to engage with people from outside of the university-setting.
Singing the trail: the story of mapping Aotearoa New Zealand
Date: Thursday 13 August 5.30pm start.
John McCrystal tells the story of Aotearoa New Zealand through its maps – and the stories of the explorers who made those maps
John begins his tale with a focus on oral maps made by early Polynesian and Maori settlers: waypoints, lists of places in songs, chants, karakia and stories that showed direction. Centuries later came the great navigators, Abel Tasman and then James Cook. And finally it was the turn of the surveyors, explorers, rockhounds, gold diggers and politicians to negotiate the internal detail.

Plastic products are marked with a number from 1 to 7 showing what type of plastic it is. This number is usually found inside a triangle on the bottom of the packaging. If you can’t find a number, then it needs to go in your rubbish.
