Water Issues
Residents urged to STOP using water, conserve water and reduce wastewater discharge
On Display Indefinitely
Horowhenua District Council strongly urges Levin, Shannon and Tokomaru residents to conserve water use immediately.
Due to the rainfall event on 27 June 2021, our water treatment plants are struggling to effectively treat the muddy river water for our drinking water supplies. We kindly ask residents and businesses connected to town water supplies to use water sparingly wherever possible so our water supply services is not interrupted. Expect low water pressure in some areas.
Our wastewater plant is impacted by high water inflows. Please restrict wastewater discharge. If it's yellow let it mellow. And please hold off doing washing.
We thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
