TEMPORARY WATER OUTAGE, WAIKANAE BEACH, TUESDAY 15/11

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

The temporary water outage initially scheduled for today has been delayed until Tuesday 15 November due to supplier delays. As part of the Waikanae Beach stormwater upgrade, essential maintenance works requires us to temporarily turn off water supply to approximately 500 properties next TUESDAY, 15 NOVEMBER 2022 between 9am and 3pm.

Affected properties are from Waikanae Beach to Peka Peka from the intersection of Te Moana Rd and Huiawa St, Heperi St and all the way to the end of Paetawa Road and Peka Peka Beach.

The water supply may be shut down and restored at any stage between 9am and 3pm. Our crew is aiming to have some water to most properties back within 2 hours.

Following the shutdown, you may notice a milky appearance caused by air in the water, this will clear rapidly. If you have any recurring problems, please call us on 0800 486 486.

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?

Marie from Waikanae

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.
