On behalf of Hutt City Council, we’re duplicating a section of old wastewater pipe (its 60 years old) from the Barber Grove Pumpstation down Randwick Road and Seaview Road - finishing at the Seaview Wastewater Treatment Plant.

From 10pm next Sunday (5 March) for up to four weeks, Seaview Road, between the Randwick Road roundabout and the Parkside Road roundabout will be closed to northbound traffic (Petone bound).
As a result, a signposted detour will be in place via Barnes Street.
Business access on Seaview Road will be available and maintained throughout the closure. Southbound traffic travelling towards Eastbourne remains on Seaview Road.
We acknowledge these works will be an inconvenience to commuters, local residents, and businesses, please be patient, and plan for delays.
Works are generally between 7am – 5:30pm Monday to Friday, with some Saturday work as required - this is dependent on weather and onsite construction conditions.

Give your favourite local business owner the recognition they deserve by nominating them in the 2023 Prospa Local Business Hero awards.
It’s a moment of horror – moving a piece of furniture and realizing what it’s done to the carpet. In fact, some people even refuse to move their furniture around because they don’t know how to get rid of the carpet dents that the heavy pieces have left. Luckily, there is a fix!

The only things you’ll need are ice cubes, and a vacuum or hairbrush.
1. Place an ice cube on the dent. If the dent is large or long, use extra ice cubes as needed
2. Allow the ice cubes to melt.
3. Once the ice cubes have melted, the carpet will fluff back up.
4. After the area has dried, vacuum over the dents or gently use a hairbrush to further fluff the carpet if needed.
Additional Tips:
Moving furniture a few inches at regular intervals can help prevent carpet dents from becoming severe. Every couple months, scoot the couch or other heavy items a couple inches to one side and fluff up the dents. If this is done, the dent can often be fluffed simply with your fingers; no water necessary.
Scraping a coin over the dent can also work to fluff it up if your fingers alone aren’t getting the pile back up.
Another method of fluffing the carpet is to use a spray mister to slightly wet the dent, then use a hair dryer on warm or cool air (holding it several inches away from the carpet) to dry the area while gently fluffing up the pile with your fingers or a hairbrush.
Another method of fluffing the carpet is to use steam. Hold a clothing or upholstery steamer several inches above the carpet and quickly blast the dent with steam. Let the dent cool, then use your fingers or a hairbrush to fluff it up. However, most carpets are nylon, and nylon can melt easily, so it’s best to test the steam on a small hidden area first, such as in the corner of a closet, to see how the carpet fibres react to the heat. Again, be sure to hold the steamer several inches away from the carpet when applying the steam.
