This afternoon while drilling and pumping concrete to create one of the posts, part of the tunnel wall collapsed into the existing void, creating a larger hole.
There was a small overflow of wastewater onto the street, which has been cleaned up, and crews are working to ensure wastewater is diverted from the area to reduce the risk of further overflows into the stormwater network and the harbour.
Sucker trucks are also being deployed to transport wastewater away from this part of the network. This will extend the amount of time we’ll have to install a temporary bypass, expected to be in place by early morning.
