Gibbons Street wastewater pipe project
We are moving into the tenth week of the 24 week project to renew the wastewater pipe in Gibbons Street, Upper Hutt.
On 7 May 2019, it is expected that the project will move back to installing the trunk sewer main, from Hall Grove to Bonnie Glen Crescent for the next three weeks.
This means that there will be a full closure to through traffic between the roundabout to Victoria Street of Gibbons Street with a detour via Pine Avenue from 7 May until 30 May 2019. Resident access into the area will be maintained.
All through traffic exiting off SH2 into Gibbons Street will continue to be diverted along the detour route to get back onto Gibbons Street (as pictured).
It is also expected that some properties in Gibbons Street will continue to be affected regarding property access. We will be in touch with those property owners well before this happens.
On-street 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 our work done as quickly as possible.
