Water Restriction Level 1 is now in effect across Wellington City, Lower Hutt and Porirua, joining Upper Hutt and South Wairarapa who are in Level 1 year-round.

Water Restriction Level 1 asks people to use sprinklers every second day.

If you live in an even numbered house, you can use sprinklers or irrigation systems on even numbered days between 6-8am and 7-9pm. If you live in an odd numbered house, the same rules apply for odd numbered days.

Wallace St closed from Sunday 5 January

From Sunday, Wallace Street will be closed to through traffic until mid-2020.

This will allow us to install major new drinking water pipes in Wallace St that will connect to the future new Omāroro water reservoir.

Expect traffic delays and if you’re driving, please consider using an alternative route, or other modes of transport. Cyclists, walkers, scooter users will be able to safely access Wallace St at all times.

Thank you for your understanding as we carry out this important work improving the resilience of Wellington’s water supply.
