Flood maps for Wainuiomata
Wainuiomata residents could soon have flood information recorded on their Land Information Memorandum (LIM) reports.
Wellington Water is about to produce maps to identify flood prone areas across the entire city of Lower Hutt. Wainuiomata is the first part of the city to be completed.
The flood maps use computer modelling to depict what areas are affected by heavy rainfall draining from the hills into urban areas, from roofs, roads, footpaths and the water's overland paths to drains, streams and rivers.
