Crews are working at pace to isolate the area and complete the repair, and have turned the water off. No customers should be affected - if you are experiencing a loss of service, please let us know.
Please see the map below for the approximate area affected.
If you have experienced any property damage from the burst, it's best to contact your insurer in the first instance, then report this to the Wellington City Council customer contact team: wellington.govt.nz...

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.
