Meet the Omāroro pipeline team

The Team from Wellington Water

We’re building a new water reservoir for Wellington City. The 35 million litre Omāroro Reservoir will more than double the city’s water storage, and make our water supply more resilient to disaster and disruption

Work is about to start on the Omāroro pipeline, an important part of the project, constructing a new pipeline corridor along Wallace Street that will connect the Omāroro Reservoir to the existing water supply.

This work will also allow us to renew local water supply pipes, stormwater pipes and sewer pipes in the area.


You’re invited to a sausage sizzle!
Come along and meet representatives of Brian Perry Civil and their partners in the project, the contractors who will be working on the pipeline.

It’s just a friendly gathering, an opportunity to get to know the team who will be working in your community over the next year or so.

Some of Wellington Water’s key project team members will also be there.

We’re putting on some simple kai. All you need to do is turn up. We’d love to see you there.

6pm-7pm

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
