Hi everyone, I’ve noticed a few comments on the page about power outages in our local area. I’ve received official comms from Vector regarding their on-going schedule of planned outages.
During the first lockdown in March/April, Vector postponed all but the absolutely critical works required for safety, supply or to support other essential services. Since then they have been working to deliver the postponed works.

Since the move to level 3, they again reviewed all their planned works and postponed or re-scoped a significant number. The remaining work Vector assessed to be so critical that they believed they could no delay- for safety or continuity of supply. They therefore have considered and/or applied the following during Alert Level 3:

- Moving works to weekends to minimise disruption to customers schooling and working from home during

- Moving works to outside social hours where possible - outside of 8am-10pm weekdays to minimise disruption

- Postponing works to beyond the 26th August where possible

- Re-scoping works and re-arranging outage times

- Cancelling capital works that are not urgent

- Using temporary generation to minimise daytime planned outage impacts whenever this is technically feasible.

For any updates on planned outages during Level 3, please visit the link provided.

Hey neighbours, 



My name is Ripu, I'm Stuff’s newly appointed Neighbourly reporter for Auckland and Northland. I've worked in Stuff's Auckland newsroom for a year and a half now, and previously covered current affairs and politics.

Neighbourly is growing as a popular tool to access local news and keep in touch with those around us, which we often miss with national media outlets. I'm here to bring you the news closest to you in a role which will work similarly to a community newspaper reporter.

If you have any stories or interesting things happening in your suburb or area, please get in touch! 

If you see news posted in your area, please get involved and reply with your comments/thoughts on the issues at hand.



Thanks in advance and I look forward to chatting with you all.
