Waitangirua/Whitby Watermain Extension Project
Our work on installing a large additional watermain pipe in Omapere Street, Warspite Avenue and Cleat Street, Waitangirua/Whitby begins next week.
Hours of work will generally be 8am-4pm Monday to Friday, with some Saturdays worked if necessary.
While work areas will be fenced off, we will make sure residents have access to their property at all times. There may be times when a contractor needs to gain access to a property, in this case residents will be given at least 24 hours’ notice of this.
When we are working within the Skyline Reserve, it will be necessary to temporarily close the pedestrian footpath from Omapere Street to Staysail Place from 8 April until early-June 2019. This will help us get the work done as quickly as possible and keep the public safe. This closure is identified in the map below.
On-street car parking in the area alongside the worksite will be restricted and we ask you to please not park your vehicle within the coned areas. This will help us to get the work done as quickly as possible. There may be some delay for traffic passing through the worksite during working hours as well.
All updates on this project will be available on our website.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
