Please stay clear of the Elsdon wetlands pond

We have repaired the wastewater leak that has contaminated the Elsdon wetlands near Porirua School.

We are monitoring the area, and we will remove visible wastewater-related material from the surface.

As a precaution, please keep tamariki and pets away from the pond and surrounding area, and avoid contact with the water and plants until further notice. 

Signs are in place around the pond. Please remind your tamariki to stay clear of the pond and surrounding area until further notice.

Project work at alert level 3

Under Alert Level 3 we’ve been able to bring more of our projects back up to speed. This means you may see more of our crews out and about getting on with essential infrastructure work, from a Manganese Reduction Plant project in South Wairarapa, and a watermain renewal in Island Bay,  to putting the finishing touches on a bulk watermain project in Porirua. Strict safety measures are in place including our workers keeping to their ‘bubbles’ on site and carefully controlling movements in and out of work sites.                   

In deciding which projects to tackle when, we’re starting with the most critical jobs and we’ll be adding to the list as work progresses, and as we move through the national Covid-19 Alert Levels.
