Cool weather halts Carterton's $500,000 clock tower upgrade

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

It is too cold to upgrade Carterton's landmark clock tower.

The $500,000 project to upgrade and earthquake strengthen the tower, is reliant on chemicals which need warmer temperatures to work.

Last year, a public vote on the clock tower’s new paint job brought national attention to the Wairarapa town.

Townsfolk voted for a reserved colour palette rather than a bold rainbow design.
