Emergency water shutdown in Welcome Bay from 10pm tonight

Communications from Tauranga City Council

UPDATE 7/05: the repairs are complete and water was restored around 1.30am this morning. If you experience any discoloured water this morning, run your outside tap for about 10 minutes to flush your line. If any problem persists, give us a call on 07 577 7000. Thanks!

Mon 6 May 2019:

We will be shutting down the water supply in Welcome Bay from 10pm tonight to conduct emergency repairs on a damaged water main. The shutdown will affect a large area of Welcome Bay, impacting about 850 properties. The streets that will be affected are available here: www.tauranga.govt.nz...

We'll work overnight to get the water back up by 5am tomorrow morning.

In the meantime please fill up a container for your use overnight if you need it, or make alternative arrangements if you require continued water supply. If you need additional drinking water, you can call us on 07 577 7000 to arrange this.

Thanks for your patience!

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
