Waitangirua/Whitby Watermain Extension Project

The Team from Wellington Water

We are soon getting under way with installing a large additional watermain pipe in Omapere Street, Warspite Avenue and Cleat Street, Waitangirua/Whitby. The project will increase resilience and provide capacity for future development.

This work will take about 20 weeks, beginning 8 April. Hours of work will generally be 8am-4pm Monday to Friday, with some Saturdays worked if necessary.

While work areas will be fenced off, we will make sure residents have access to their property at all times. There may be times when a contractor needs to gain access to a property, in this case residents will be given at least 24 hours’ notice of this. Please contact our project team if you have any concerns.


When we are working within the Skyline Reserve, it will be necessary to temporarily close the pedestrian footpath from Omapere Street to Staysail Place from 8 April until early-June 2019. This will help us get the work done as quickly as possible and keep the public safe.


On-street car parking in the area alongside the worksite will be restricted and we ask you to please not park your vehicle within the coned areas. This will help us to get the work done as quickly as possible. There may be some delay for traffic passing through the worksite during working hours as well.

All updates on this project will be available on our website.

Dumped Fridge

Ruth from Aro Valley

Hi, does anyone know who dumped a large fridge at the top entrance to Irvine Street lane, on Rarora Road? if you do, can you please remind them there are a couple of ways to move free stuff on, through 'Free Wellington' or the tip 'recycling center'. It is not ok to just leave stuff on the side of the road for your neighbors to end up having to deal with. I suspect it is no longer in working order as it has been left uncovered out in the rain. It is also quite lazy to just dump stuff without returning to check if it has been picked up/removed thereby leaving it to others to get rid of whatever it is you don't want or can't be bothered paying for removal of. If it was you who left it, do please come back and remove it.
