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.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
