Strong seas are continuing to push waves across the road along Wellington’s South Coast.

People are advised to stay away from the ocean and surrounding areas – it’s best to stay safe, and take care at home in your bubbles.

People are advised to stay away from the ocean and surrounding areas – it’s best to stay safe, and take care at home in your bubbles.

Roads have been closed, and our trucking operations from the Moa Point treatment plant and the Southern Landfill are taking an alternative route along State Highway 1 and up through Brooklyn (pictured below) until the coast road can be cleaned up and reopened. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Stay safe everyone, and thanks to local residents for their patience and understanding.

With the current restrictions we aren’t able to print or distribute at the moment, but we are working hard on a fantastic May issue for you and it will be on sale as soon as the restrictions ease! I am hearing from so many readers right now about how their gardens have never been more important to them than they are now, so I want to ensure you get your NZ Gardener, packed with beautiful pictures, expert advice, inspiration and information as quickly as possible, so you can enjoy your own garden even more. Meanwhile, when you do your next shop, we’d love it if you could pick up a copy of the April issue which is on sale now (you can add a copy to your online shop too). As you’ve probably heard on the news it is a tough time for magazines right now, and we are incredibly grateful for the support of our regular readers and (especially!) our subscribers. If you are in a position to subscribe, or share your own love of plants and gardening by buying a subscription as a gift for someone else, then we’d be incredibly grateful: mags4gifts.co.nz.... Stay safe and enjoy the extra time in your garden everyone! Jo

Bingo! Drainage Serviceman Brent locates the head of a blocked wastewater main in Southgate with his metal detector.

The search started on CCTV when the team found tree roots blocking the main. After locating and uncovering the buried head, they got stuck in and cleared out the pipe with a hand-tool, as they were more than 50m ‘off road’ and their flushing truck was out of range.

Stay safe everyone. It’s a jungle out there!
