Hi there
Does anyone know where I can buy a second hand bunk bed in good condition with mattresses. I have $200 that's my budget. Photos provided will be great.
Cheers

The good news is that tests today (Thursday 13 April) have come back negative, however Wellington Water will continue to chlorinate the water and test this bore and bores throughout the city, so your water supply will remain chlorinated over the long weekend.
Pending further investigation, and advice from Regional Public Health, Hutt City Council have closed the unchlorinated public water supply bores at Buick Street, and Dowse Square. Until we get approval, both public bores will be closed as a precautionary measure.
The usual Friday rubbish and recycling collections will not happen on Good Friday (14 April). Instead, our contractors will be out the next day on Saturday 15 April. Please remember to have your bags and bin kerbside by 7.30am. All other collection days over the Easter holidays remain the same.

Silverstream Landfill will also be closed on Good Friday but open normal hours over the rest of the Easter break.
Visit huttcity.govt.nz for opening hours of other council facilities over the long weekend. Happy (almost) Easter everyone.
On Saturday 15th April, we’ll be switching traffic onto the new Haywards Interchange. If you’re travelling along State Highway 2 or State Highway 58, this will change how you move through the area.

For State Highway 2 traffic, the main change you’ll notice is there will be no more traffic signals. If you’re wanting to get onto or off State Highway 58, you’ll use the new elevated roundabout. There will be plenty of signage to guide you, and a lower speed limit in place to allow everyone to get used to the new layout.
For more information, plus a diagram and quick animation guide, please click here or call the project team on 0800 007 425.

As part of routine water testing carried out on water from the Waterloo wellfield (Lower Hutt), a sample from a bore in the wellfield has returned a positive e-coli result.
It is important to note that this test is an indicator test and further testing is required to confirm any contamination. While this further testing is being carried out, chlorine will be added to the water supply for Lower Hutt as a precautionary measure. We’ll continue to chlorinate the water until we have clearance from Regional Public Health.
Other water quality tests taken at the same time have returned negative results.
The water already in pipes is safe to drink and there is no need to boil water.
The public artesian wells at Buick Street in Petone, and Dowse Square in central Lower Hutt remain open as a source of unchlorinated drinking water.
We’ll be carrying out tests on multiple samples at other reservoirs and points in the water network, and provide updates here as soon as those results come in (late tomorrow).
