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.

 As part of our work to upgrade Upper Hutt's drinking water network and improve access to safe and health drinking water, we are getting underway with renewing the drinking water pipes in the Totara Park Road area.

The work is still in the design stages and this involves carrying out investigations to locate utility services in the area prior to renewing the water pipes.

Our crews will be excavating in your area from Monday 8 May to Friday 12 May 2023. Hours of work will generally be 8:00pm – 5:00am Monday to Friday.

To do this work we may need to dig trenches across driveways and pathways, but we won’t enter any private properties. We will restore driveways and pathways to, at least, their pre-work condition.

The construction works are expected to commence in September  2023 and take around four to five months to complete.
