Our contractor, Citycare Water, is working on the water main in Bledisloe Street
As part of the work, the water supply needs to be turned off.
This will take place on Friday 29 September 9:30 am to 3:30 pm.
- If you need water during this period, we recommend that you fill up suitable containers before the water is turned off.
- Try not to use hot taps while the water is off. The hot water cylinder may be damaged if the water level gets too low.
- Do not use washing machines, automatic dishwashers, or other appliances that use water during the shut-off period as they may be damaged if used without water.
- In the event of inclement or persistent weather, work will be deferred to a later date.
- When the water supply is turned back on, the water may have a milky-white appearance. This is caused by small air bubbles in the water supply and will not affect taste or quality. Citycare will try to eliminate most of the air from the system when the supply is restored. However, if air is still visible in your water, running a tap for a few minutes should clear it from your pipes.
