Severe weather impacts across the city

Kylie from Hutt Central

Kia ora everyone,

We have a number of severe weather impacts across the city. Wellington Region Emergency Management have provided an update:

- Stay indoors where possible and avoid unnecessary travel.
- If you need to travel this afternoon/evening, plan ahead as strong winds can make driving hazardous.
- Take special care on coastal roads as there may be debris.
- Severe wind gusts like these can damage trees, powerlines and unsecured structures and can cause threat to life from flying items and falling trees.
- Destructive winds can cause widespread damage including powerlines and roofs, with dangerous driving conditions and significant disruption to transport and power supply.
- Be ready for possible power and communication outages
- Secure any outdoor items if safe to do so, like wheelie bins, trampolines and outdoor furniture that may blow around.
- If can back up any data and keep your laptops and phones charged in case of power.
- Any travel that is necessary please allow for delays and plan accordingly.

For Hutt specific information, we are keeping the Hutt City Council Facebook page and website regularly updated.

Speed limits around NaeNae

Susan from Naenae

Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all
