Poll: Did you know about this Melville project?
New giant “poo tanks”, each longer than three city buses and designed to hold two million litres of wastewater, are sitting empty at the Pukete waste water treatment plant after a major Hamilton City Council project blew its budget and timeline.
The city’s first underground bulk wastewater storage system set to go in Melville’s Collins Road opposite Deanwell Park has cost an extra $2.9 million, with the project completion delayed over a year after contractors discovered higher groundwater during excavations than anticipated.
