BOIL WATER NOTICE - THOMPSON STREET, MOUNT COOK
BOIL WATER OUTAGE - THOMPSON STREET, MOUNT COOK

Wellington Water advises that residents of all properties on Thompson Street, Mt Cook, must boil their water before it is used for drinking, food preparation or dental hygiene.

Once the  burst pipe on Thompson Street is repaired, there is a low risk that the water has been contaminated with bacteria. The bacteria can be killed by boiling which is why a boil water notice has been issued as a precaution.

We will advise once the repair is completed and water service has been restored. This boil water notice is in effect from 2pm Friday 13th June 2025 until further notice.

Work to replace a critical valve chamber on Taranaki Street will start on Monday, 26 August.

This project is essential to improve the resilience of our drinking water network. It is expected to be completed in 4-5 weeks.

The following may impact members of the public:

 

  • Bus Stop Relocation: Bus stop #6913 will be relocated approximately 30m south for the duration of the project.

  • Traffic Management: Traffic management will be in place on the southbound lane of Taranaki Street outside the Massey University Halls of Residence. Driveway access will be maintained, although only left turns will be permitted into and out of the driveway. Traffic management personnel will be on site between 7am – 6pm Monday to Saturday.

  • Work Hours: The hours of work will generally be 7am to 6pm Monday to Friday. There will be some noise with this work, however every effort will be made to reduce noise and disruption.

Thank you for your patience as we work to improve the city’s infrastructure.
