Supply from rivers in Wainuiomata has dropped out, and now we’re using a lot more water from our storage lakes.
Lake usage has averaged about 41MLD over the last week, and levels have dropped 9% in the last week.
Catchments are still very dry, and there isn’t much rain on the forecast! Please continue to observe water restrictions until they come off, and of course, always use water wisely.
*These graphs indicate demand in Porirua, Wellington, Lower Hutt, and Upper Hutt.

Club President Judith Gray says that, as community leaders, the Board felt this to be the correct course of action to take in order to look after people and help slow the spread of Covid-19 through the community. Unfortunately, this has also meant postponing the club’s upcoming 50th Anniversary celebrations.
“However, if Rotarians can be of assistance to members of the Tawa Community during this time we will do what we can to help while also maintaining adherence to Government guidelines. Look after yourselves and your families and look out for your neighbours. To quote the Prime Minister, we will get through this.”

Does Thistle Roofing still exist please.

THANKS.

Near new- doesn't fit all of our bikes so had to get another one. Best suits road bikes rather than mountain bikes. You can really only fit 3 mountain bikes on (2 adults, one kid).

Hi neighbours,
The coronavirus "outbreak" has been officially declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation – but what does that mean?
To read more, click here.
Crews have now temporarily reinstated the road and footpath with asphalt, and has been made safe for regular traffic.
Later in the evening the crew will de-establish the site completely for the weekend.
We will be back on site next week to finalise reinstatement of road and footpath.
Thanks to the crews who have been on site working hard to repair the burst main. Water is now back on.
Crews will remain on site to reinstate the footpath and road. We will provide an update on this shortly.
