Seaview Road Traffic Management - Barber Grove project
Wellington Water acknowledges the Port Road detour at Seaview has caused significant delays. We very much appreciate your patience while these critical works are underway.
The traffic management in place is intended to ensure the necessary works are done as quickly and safely as possible. We did investigate other options to avoid a one-way system on Seaview Road - but none were suitable or practical given the scope of works and electricity cables in the immediate area.
This current wastewater infrastructure which serves almost the entire Hutt Valley is vulnerable in the event of flooding or a large earthquake, and we just want to get on with renewing it, so the community is not subject to these risks and has a modern and resilient wastewater network.
The reality is we have two major arterial routes converging at the Seaview roundabout at peak times, and unfortunately, slow-moving traffic is unavoidable.
We now have additional signage in place along the route and will keep monitoring the traffic situation closely and make changes where we can.
Our crew is committed to completing the works quickly and safely and we’ll keep you informed as progress is made.

Tap Fusion opens Wellington Fringe Festival
New Zealand’s home-grown Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be opening the Wellington Fringe Festival at the Hannah Theatre this weekend. The show is a unique collaboration of New Zealand’s top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Swing Dance and live musicians. This will be the first time a Tap show has been seen at the Fringe Festival.
Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Dance Champion brothers Brandon and Cameron Carter-Chan. They say the show is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.
Tap Fusion is on at The Hannah Theatre, 12 Cambridge Terrace, Wellington on 13th & 14th February.
