Omāroro Reservoir Pipelines Project in Mt Cook
Wellington Water continues to work on the Omāroro Reservoir Pipelines Project in Mt Cook, installing pipelines to connect the planned Prince of Wales reservoir to the city network and making our water supply more resilient to disaster and disruption.
The Pipelines Project is set for completion in mid-2020 and will affect traffic in the area as new pipelines are installed down Hargreaves Street and then into Wallace Street which is a major arterial road.
While every effort is being made to reduce impact on commuter traffic and disruption, this will cause delays and disruptions, but this is sometimes unavoidable due to the location of the pipes and for health and safety reasons.
Traffic information will be well sign posted. Please take care and follow directions, or use alternative routes avoiding the Mt Cook area.
We are working closely with residents in the area, and pedestrian access won’t be affected.
Apologies for any inconvenience, and thank you for your cooperation in improving the city’s water infrastructure.
