Crews working overnight have managed to divert wastewater flows through an old pipeline.

This means we are able to significantly reduce overflow into the harbour. However, we can’t say for sure the overflow has stopped.

We continue to ask people to stay out of the water in the rāhui area (from Kaiwharawhara to Point Halswell). Harbour water quality testing will continue in the interim.

We are continuing to work through options to ensure we can completely stop the overflow as soon as possible.

We’re really sorry about the inconvenience this is causing to people and traffic.

Following emergency works at Dixon Street yesterday, crews have worked through the night on options to divert wastewater around the blocked areas. More work is required, and to help with this there are currently two major local road closures in the CBD.

• Willis St is CLOSED between Vivian St and Manners St
• Ghuznee St remains CLOSED between The Terrace and Victoria St

Please expect significant delays through the CBD, particularly on Vivian St. SH1 traffic should use Cambridge Tce, Wakefield St, Jervois Quay, Waterloo Quay and Aotea Quay as alternative routes during this time.

We are working with local businesses and residents who have been incredibly accommodating, and thank them for their patience and support as we work to repair the pipe.

Wastewater is still overflowing into the harbour, and the rāhui is still in place (see map). Please continue to stay out of the water, and do not go fishing or collect seafood.

We also thank residents and businesses in the affected area for doing everything they can to reduce their water use.
