Council staff are working hard to deal with the aftermath of ex-Cyclone Debbie. Customer service requests are being prioritised according to necessity of work.

Severe road damage, slips and flooding have dominated Council staff’s workloads since the cyclone hit the area last week.

And it's not over yet.

A low in the Tasman Sea is forecast to bring heavy rain to an already sodden North Island on Wednesday.

Cyclone Cook is due to bear down on the east coast of New Zealand from the Pacific later in the week.

Please bear in mind that normally simple service requests may take longer than usual as teams concentrate on assessment and repair of damaged roads, clearing slips and unblocking drains overwhelmed by flood waters.

River Road, Tuakau
Council staff have been working hard to re-open roads like River Road in Tuakau, which was closed by a slip.

Koheroa Rd
Ex-Cyclone Debbie has caused more damage to Koheroa Road at Mercer, which is closed between the intersections of Kellyville Road and Glass Road.

Water savings alert lifted - for now

Thanks for your efforts after Friday’s request for urgent water savings. We're pleased to report our inspections show the city’s Eastern Bulk Water Main emergency repairs survived Cyclone Debbie and we have returned to normal service.
Although the immediate request has been lifted, further water conservation measures may still be required at short notice during some aspects of construction, or if river levels rise again - and it looks like we've got some serious rain on the way this week.
Last week's massive rainfall flooded the repair site and we shut down the main due to increased risk of further subsidence and damage to the pipes.

I would be curious to find out who else has been experiencing this.
