[UPDATE]
Three big projects are set to cause route changes and disruptions for buses, pedestrians and motorists in central Wellington over the coming weekend.
The closures will be from 9pm Friday 6 September to 6pm Sunday 8 September.
A tower crane on the Stewart Dawson’s construction site at the corner of Lambton Quay and Willis Street is being dismantled, extended and reinstalled, which will require the closure of both streets to through traffic at the intersection.
Wellington City Council has taken the opportunity of this major closure to also carry out essential road resealing works in Lambton Quay and Willis Street over the same weekend.
This co-ordinated approach aims to minimise ongoing disruptions in the busy CBD. If we have to close streets for one big project then it’s logical for us to time it with other projects and get all of the work out of the way in one go.
Roadwork locations and detours:
• Road surface repairs on Lambton Quay - outside 219 Lambton Quay (ANZ Bank) in the bus lane
• Road surface repairs on Willis Street – between Mercer Street and Manners Street in the bus lane (southbound)
• Crane dismantling and extension on the Stewart Dawson’s Corner construction site.
Bus detours:
• Northbound buses will be detoured into Taranaki Street and along the waterfront quays to Brandon Street and then back on to Lambton Quay.
• Buses to the southern and eastern suburbs will detour off Lambton Quay at Panama Street and follow Featherston, Hunter and Victoria Streets before resuming their usual routes at Manners Street.
Motorists should expect delays and, if possible, avoid the CBD. Detour signs will be in place.
Pedestrians and cyclists should take extra care due to the changes in traffic routes. At some times during the weekend the south end of Lambton Quay will be closed to pedestrians so access from Willis Street to Lambton Quay will be via the Old Bank Arcade or via Hunter Street and Customhouse Quay.
All three jobs are weather-dependent so if it rains the work will be postponed until the following weekend.
Does anyone know where can I donate baby cot and car seat??
I asked Salvation Army and they don’t accept because of safety reasons.

Can theatre and arts change attitudes and behaviour?
In this world of information overload, do we need to make more space for artistic engagements with the issues that matter? Can theatre provoke new thinking on social justice, inequality, poverty, climate change and other big challenges of our time?
Award-winning playwright and researcher in creative communication and creative activism Dr Tilley shares insights from performance-based projects she’s pioneered, including Climate Change Theatre Action, Te Hā Tangata: Human Library on Homelessness, and JustUs (about youth justice).
Dr Tilley will discuss how these projects not only inform but also take audiences and participants on an emotional journey that can lead to profound changes in attitudes and even behaviour.
About the speaker
Associate Professor Elspeth Tilley writes plays and teaches creative activism at Massey University, Wellington. Her short political plays have won festivals worldwide and been published in the USA, UK, Canada and New Zealand. She received the Playwrights’ Association of New Zealand Outstanding Achiever award in 2018.
