KENT TERRACE, WELLINGTON CENTRAL - BURST PIPE AFFECTING TRAFFIC
Kia ora Wellington,
A burst pipe has caused flooding on Kent Terrace, between Vivian Street and Buckle St (approximately).
Crews are onsite, and we're awaiting urgent traffic management so we can undertake the repair.
While we wait for traffic management, we're asking people to avoid the area if possible, and if not please expect delays. We appreciate that this is a main route, so are doing all we can to minimise impact on commuters.
At this stage, we don't expect a shutdown to affect any properties but will provide more information as the repair progresses.
It's a major repair and we expect it to take between 8 -10 hours.
We'll keep you updated on our social channels.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
